Why is this bowl of leaves SEVEN DOLLARS?

Why is the average salad -- just a bowl of leaves and some nuts and berries -- so much more expensive than a slain cow that had to be reared to adulthood, and fed, and slaughtered?  Why does my deli dude scribble $7.75 to $10 on the top of my lunch order when it is all veggies and weighs just ounces?  Why does the government tell us to eat according to the pyramid on the right, but fund food industry according to the one on the left?  And why oh why are we so fat?  It's largely about subsidies.
