A few things. Americans call it canned food.
In the US, canned food is cheaper than fresh veggies. That's a huge reason we have a obesity issue here. Perhaps if they made fresh foods more cost friendly for the low and middle income families, they might eat healthier. When you have a grocery budget of $400 a month, you have to make your dollars stretch. Most of the time, I get frozen veggies because for $5.00 I can purchase three pounds of frozen corn, vs spending the same money on two dozen ears of corn. The ears of corn won't get me three meals like the frozen corn will. Currently, one head of lettuce sits at nearly two dollars. That's too high in my book.
