[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the OP. I am sorry I wasn't clear. My point was that I keep hearing that poor people can't afford to eat healthy, but [b]it can be done[/b]. It just involves planning, and cooking, and accepting that you may eat the same meals several days in a row.[/quote] Not always. Thanks for your singular data point. [/quote] Name some typical circumstances why it couldn’t e done, then. I can’t think of any reason why the same poor person could easily obtain for themselves Takis and Mountain Dew but not a can of pinto beans. [/quote] I can - they live in a food desert and the corner store doesn't sell pinto beans.[/quote] What’s the standard? Not to eat garbage for dinner? That’s a general standard. If you’re eating takis and mtn dew you are well below standard and expecting less is infantilizing. Why such low expectations?[/quote]
