Is cheap food really a value?

A popular fast food chain offers its “Value meals” at a remarkably low price. And grocery stores often advertise various packaged and processed food items at a huge discount.
So it oftentimes seems that the healthier foods such as fruit, veggies and chicken breast are way more expensive. BUT, truthfully, it all depends on how we measure the cost of our food.
For example, healthier foods such as fruits, veggies, and fresh lean meat are higher in important nutrients that the body needs (vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, protein), as compared to a hamburger on a bun with fries. So, you would have to eat a much larger quantity of the burger and fries to get enough of the nutrition your body needs.
