5. Beef
Beef, as we all know, is an expensive kind of protein and is seldom considered a “bargain” meat no matter where you buy them.
If you’re shopping at Whole Foods and are looking for specialty cuts of beef, be prepared to shell-out 50% more than what you usually do elsewhere. This is because the meats sold at the popular health food chain are claimed to be organic, free-range, grass-fed, or cruelty-free. In other words, if the animals they come from are raised differently from how they conventionally are, they become expensive.
