Unlike rent, utilities, car payments and other fixed expenses grocery budgets can be trimmed to fit however much money is available. But, in order to meet their budgets the first things that people take off their grocery lists are fresh fruits and vegetables. Unfortunately for those people wintertime is the time when people need those fresh fruits the most in order to get the vitamins needed to fight off illness.
