Fruit and luxury fruit

This picture features some nice and healthy food options. Fruit. It is recommended to have five servings of fruit a day for better health. It was taken at Piedmont Grocery. The thing that I want to bring to your attention is the price of cherries listed above the produce itself. It is nearly $7.00 per pound for cherries. $7.00. For some, that is the cost of a meal, many times including a drink. Can you just imagine if a customer desired to buy two pounds of cherries? They would spend nearly $14.00 for the fruit alone. Eating fruit is a healthy habit to practice, but it shouldn't be a luxury reserved only for the rich. The cost of these cherries makes the fruit unattainable for those who cannot spend quite so much on just cherries. The high price of fruit may make it out of reach for customers with lower budgets. They may choose to buy chips or cookies instead of fruit because chips may be more affordable. Fruit should be available to all because of the health benefits of eating it. It should be accessable for those with moderate budgets, not just for customers with high budgets. The high price of fruit can be viewed as a factor of malnutrition because not all customers can indulge in high price luxurious fruit.
