Feeding a family on a tight budget is a concern for many Americans, now more than ever.  "Healthy Eating on a Budget" provides expert tips and strategies on how to shop for healthy and nutritious foods without busting your wallet.

The program encourages viewers to use "unit pricing" to determine whether or not buying in bulk is truly cost effective.  Also included are proven tips for teaching families about portion size, substituting whole grains for white grains, and making your dollar go further at the grocery store.

Featuring advice from experienced nutritionists and registered dietitians, the upbeat video simplifies the most important parts of a complicated nutrition label, shares why it's important to shop seasonally, and points out which grocery store gimmicks to avoid. By understanding the layout of your grocery store, taking advantage of in-store flyers and coupons and staying away from pre-packaged and processed foods, your family will be on its way to a healthier lifestyle, without breaking the bank.
