[quote=Anonymous]I find it ridiculous some are shaming people for their poor food choices and blaming it on poverty. Looking at national obesity rates and our general unhealthiness as a nation makes it pretty clear that this is a national issue. Also, there's some chicken/egg. That Safeway on Benning has rotting produce displayed so why would anyone buy it? I don't have the numbers but I know the grocery buying power of W7/8 is huge and anectdotally it seems most of us shop in MD or Cap Hill/Noma. I make healthy food choices and could walk to that Safeway, but never shop there because it's an awful Safeway. [/quote]
