[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Junk food is cheap. Healthy food is expensive. Work from there.[/quote]

Chips and soda are not cheap! Frozen pizzas are not cheap! What junk food do you think is cheap? [/quote]
Exactly. Growing up, we couldn’t afford that stuff.[/quote]
dp  This is 2024, not 1974.  A 2 liter bottle of soda is cheaper than a half gallon of milk.

I also remember soda being expensive when I was younger. We only started getting it when my dad started making more when I was a teen.  McD was also not that relatively cheap.

This is not the case today.

A  little carton of fresh strawberries cost $4.99 (and sometimes $6.99). It's not much of a snack to last a week, and actually, it wouldn't even last week because it would start to get moldy.  A bag of chips is $2.99 and can last a week.[/quote]

A bag of chips doesn’t last a week. Chips cost between $6-$7 if not more per bag. Show me $2.99 chips.[/quote]

$2.86 for 16 oz

Now post the ingredients, Einstein.
Highlight any ingredient that is actual food. Now YOU can stfu.[/quote]

So what?

You want poor people and the disabled to be marginalized and denied food. If they bought meat with SNAP benefir, you would say they were unworthy of that as well.

People on SNAP should buy meat. They are worthy of nutritional benefits that are filling and healthy for their bodies. They are not animals to be fed the lowest form of corn based slop and carbonated sugar water that will make them unhealthy and kill them.[/quote]
