Q: I’m on a low income. I would like to eat more sustainably but worried it will cost more?
A: It won’t be more expensive to eat sustainably - in fact the opposite! Meat can be expensive so opting for plant based proteins can save you money. Eating foods that are in season, planning meals and shopping well can save you money too. Try to reduce your food waste, freeze foods near expiration and batch cook were possible. Watch our YouTube Video on ‘How to Save Money on Your Food Shop’ for more ideas.
Q: I’ve noticed lots of plant based ‘ready meals’ at the supermarket. Are these a healthier choice?
A: It’s important to read food labels to make an informed choice. Ready meals are highly processed and can contain high levels of saturated fat, salt and sugar and are generally more expensive to buy than whole foods. Further information on food labels here: [ Ссылка ]
