Does ramen, McDonalds, and frozen cardboard pizza count as real food?

I think actual food may already be borderline too expensive for the average person to eat. At least Soylent promises to make it somewhat healthier.

Nope.

It is pretty expensive to eat good, healthy food all of the time, but I still think middle-class families can afford it (although its getting harder all the time). Sometimes the crappy, unhealthy alternatives are cheaper, but there are still meals that you can cook at home that are pretty inexpensive.

How is it expensive? Local farms market for fruits/veggies. Some meat shop/costco for meat in bulk.
Perhaps I need to find a farmer's market and a meat shop.
