[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of this works when the stove in your crappy apartment breaks and you’re scared to tell the landlord because if he comes in he’ll know you have more than the allowed number of occupants in your place.

Or when you have a slumlord who won’t deal with the mouse and/or roach infestation so you can’t store any food in bulk. [/quote]

What? Focus. Poor people can eat healthy cheaply. They just don’t want to. Hence why they are poor.[/quote]

I killed the mice in my apartment and decimated the roaches when they appeared. I didn't wait for a landlord nor hired an exterminator. I just made traps and  used boric acid.
I get the OP. There are so many people, including the poster above, who accept being hapless and helpless. Moreover, they have it in their head that it is someone else's responsibility.
My parents fed our family of 7 on $60/week back in the 1980s. My Chinese mom cooked every single night, we could not afford to eat out. Our meals were cooked from scratch and nutritious with plenty of greens because she loved veggies.
