How can I eat healthier when all the healthy foods are so expensive!?

I went grocery shopping yesterday intending on buying some fresh vegetables and everything was just so expensive! It was $4 for a small bag of carrots and that was about the cheapest vegetable they had besides potatoes and iceberg lettuce. Everything else was outrageously expensive. A 2 pound bag of apples was almost $7, bell peppers were $5 for 3 in a pack (and none of these vegetables were organic grown). Lean meats were just as bad. Lean meats are about an average of 60 cents more expensive per pound than regular fat meats. If the government wants to help people get healthier, then why is the healthier food more expsnsive, and hence less likely to be bought by people living on a budget? And please note, me and my brother live on about $120 a month for groceries. It's cheaper to buy the unhealthy ramen noodles, Hamburger Helper, and fatty ground beef than it is to buy lots of fresh fruits and vegetables.
