Nice job!
Walmart may be a more economical place to buy produce than convenience stores, but even in inner cities there is usually a grocery store (not a trendy and high priced place like whole foods, either) within a short drive or bike ride.
I can see how finding time to both cook and shop (and clean up afterward) can be more of a problem for someone working three jobs and raising young children. What percentage of the population is in that situation?
