Do you ever do your food shopping at a corner store? Although larger grocery stores usually have lower prices and a better selection of healthy foods, you can still find healthy options at corner stores. For example, most corner stores sell canned foods such as canned fruits, vegetables, and beans. They are great as snacks, sides, and in main dishes. Many corner stores also sell milk, eggs, and peanut butter, which are all good sources of protein and other nutrients. When available, fresh fruits and vegetables are good choices. Plan a visit to your local farmers’ market for fresh fruits and vegetables. Finally, compare the prices and selection of different corner stores to make sure you’re getting the healthiest food for the best price!
