I think that guy's point was that it isn't cheaper to eat junk than to eat "good and healthy" food.

I think that this is big distinction between USA/Canada.

Junk is way cheaper than healthy food if you buy it in the stores vs going to fast food restaurants. But yes almost everything is less expensive in the US.
