Check out the latest Carnival of Personal Finance. My favorite entry this week was:
Eating Healthy and Inexpensively
This blog highlights something I've noticed on the frugal forums I hang out on. Many of the people there will load up on starches like rice and beans or Ramen noodles because they are cheap forms of calories and then a disproportionate amount compared to other people I know seem to have diabetes. It seems like people who are frugal because they have to be get caught in a Catch-22 situation of low cost starches now - health issues later.
