What happens when two high school teachers realize that they are being priced out of their local grocery store and decide to try to feed themselves on one dollar each per day? In their first book, ON A DOLLAR A DAY, Christopher Greenslate and Kerri Leonard chronicle the remarkable adventure that changed their perspective on food politics, healthcare, nutrition, and even their relationship with each other. Their timely experiment became much more than a way to trim their budget: it became a lifestyle. This is a must-read for anyone who wants to make a serious change in what they eat and why.
