We all lead busy lives, and it can be hard to remember to eat healthily. Sometimes, it’s easier to just grab food off the shelf, thinking only of the convenience and not of the nutritional value. Processed foods are always on-hand, which is why they are so lucrative for manufacturers. And they’ve saved us time and money in the past. But, at what cost?

Some of these products are clearly unhealthy, but because they’re lucrative moneymakers they stay on the shelves anyway. Read on to learn which foods to avoid on your next trip to the supermarket.
