As would I.

But I guess my question was about average cost. I am looking at this from an economic point of view. Ignoring work hours, preparation time, transportation costs, laziness, etc. is it on average cheaper to make your own healthy food?

Obviously all those other things I ignored matter a lot, but we have to first consider the bare costs, and if it is in fact cheaper to eat healthy then we can start looking to reasons like prep time, laziness, etc.
