Healthy choices are hard to find, especially when you take a look at the ingredients in the item. Foods that seem healthy can be filled with unnecessary hormones, high fructose corn syrup, artificial sweeteners and other harsh chemicals. Fresh produce also typically has a higher price. Since these items are more expensive and have a shorter shelf life, most people would much rather purchase that more attractive, affordable box of Poptarts that requires no preparation or time beyond opening the package. Most people don't have time in the day to check every single label on the back of a box of food to see if the item is healthy, especially with school, work and family to deal with. Furthermore, they do not have the time to prepare three complete meals during the day, nor the money to do so. With low wages, other people to feed, and other necessities to purchase, it is nearly impossible to be a healthy person.
