Ah, see, you didn't specify that processed foods were banned -- just that you wanted a healthy diet. Pasta is certainly a processed food, but it's not unhealthy.

Twinkies are processed and quite high in sugar and fat, granted, but I'm not advocating eating Twinkies.

I can get a 770 calorie bag of lima beans for $1.89 at Safeway. That's 4cal/cent

A small Big Mac meal at McDonalds: Big Mac, 540 calories, small French fries, 230 calories, small coke 150 calories. I just called my local McDonalds' -- that's $5.78. That's 1.59cal/cent. That Big Mac meal isn't cost/calorie cheaper than those lima beans. Admittedly, that's prepared and served food.

Let's look up a Twinkie, for an example of non-healthy, non-served food. A Twinkie has 150 calories. I can get a 20 Twinkie pack on Amazon for $14 (without free shipping, but I'll be generous and pretend that it has zero shipping). That's 2.14cal/cents.

Let's grab some other stuff I have lying around -- spaghetti. I can get 20 boxes of spaghetti with zero shipping for $27.65. First hit on Amazon, no searching around. That's 1680 calories/box, and 12.15 cal/cent.

I'm eating, right now, a tin of Crown Prince sardines in Lousiana hot sauce. I got a box of 24 of these from Amazon for $25.95, free shipping. Each has 230 calories, so 2.127cal/cent. It's probably not the cheapest form of fish I could get, but I happen to like spicy sardines. It is true that the sardines are slightly more expensive than the Twinkies (I get 6% more calories per penny with the Twinkies).

I'm just not seeing this "prohibitively expensive" bit.

Not only do they still sell them, they now sell "Big Packs" with double sized cookies.

I'll do you one better: this is one of my favorite desserts, AND it's on my WL, AND it's under $15 :P

cheesecake all day everyday (but not for me because I'm somewhat lactose intolerant =)

Thanks for the contest!
