"Food deserts alone are not to blame for poor nutrition""They also consume less of two of the four unhealthy food groups, saturated fat and sugar "

There is NOTHING wrong with saturated fat.  It's a myth.   It keep getting perpetuated by the AHA but there is little evidence supporting this.And, as someone who lost 87 pounds in calendar year 2017, as long as there is any grocery store reasonably near that person, they can eat healthy.   Just avoid simple carbs.  Make your own meals.  Weigh your food.   Only eat 3 meals a day and avoid snacking all day long.  Learn to eat to live.I didn't say it was easy.  I said it was necessary.
