[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rich people don't know that it's difficult to eat well and healthily if you live in a food desert.  [/quote]

I HATE phrases like 'food desert'. People have feet.[/quote]

So a single mom with kids is supposed to walk to the store (how many miles?). Does she use a stroller to push her kids or does she strap them to her back/front and have those 4+ walk? Because once she loads up on all that healthy, fresh food, she is “using her feet” to lug food and kids back to her home.  The ignorance of this post is exactly the point. [/quote]

I push three kids in a stroller 2 miles for groceries and tuck the groceries into the rack and a backpack[/quote]

And I am sure that it is uphill both ways![/quote]

No. It is pretty flat.  I walk from the edge of Ballston to Trader Joe's and Whole Foods in Clarendon.   Many areas in the Metro area  do not require pushing strollers uphill.   Are food deserts only in hilly areas?  [/quote]

I can just imagine you in your Lululemon and your Uppababy running to Whole Foods so that  you can get a few more steps on your Fitbit and picking up a few bottles of Kombucha and ingredients for dinner. That is exactly the same as walking out of the core of a city through dangerous areas into an unfamiliar neighborhood to shop at the store that you can't even afford.
