What is this supposed to mean?
You can eat cheap and healthy if you not a dumbass
Buying $10 salads $6 Cheetos 8$ 12 pck soda etc ..
For carbonated drinks this what I do..
Buy couple jarritos sparkling water @ $1.38 each
Add lemon/ any fruit juice concentrate make about 4 liters . Equivalent of a 12pack soda for half the price
If you buy lemon or lime juice or even the actual fruit you still save $
Little things add up

It’s funny to me the lengths yall would go to excuse some shyt
Me personally I can eat the same thing everyday and only drink water, but I’m not naive to think everyone is hardwired like me and I’m not arrogant to think they should be
You already got people spending about 30-40 maybe even 50% of the income on housing to live in the fukking hood, add transportation and food and mfs is broke and yall trying to spin the narrative as if it’s the citizens fault and they should be living to the extreme minimalist, no pushback on the price gouging everyone has been participating, like I wonder when is it enough what is the breaking point
god forbid somebody wants to get junk food or buy some different cuts of meat, like do y’all really be thinking about the shyt y’all be writing, everything the citizens do for this country, all the taxes motherfukers be paying, the fact that they squeezing us literally in every faucet of life and yall trying to excuse what the fukk they doing with these prices

Side effect of capitalism. It'll only get worse until we chuck that system into the bushes.
Also, we have to get politically involved and vote.

Because people don't get involved and vote when the option arrives. People believe the propaganda why capitalism is good and socialism is bad. In fact, the propaganda model used was model after Joseph Goebbels' strategy to get the Nazis in power.
Heres how you combat price gouging on foodstuff.
Don't buy the shyt that's super expensive.
You can definitely buy the actual ingredients. Potatoes, rice, cheese, cuts of meat. And it's better for you to make your own dish.

Because people did it... What you think our parents was telling us when they said "We got McDonald's at home?"
I don't know about y'all but we wasn't eating fast food every night. I know good and damn well my Grandmas wasn't swinging by there for my parents either. That was supposed to be special nights and shyt. Not every meal. We wasn't getting 3-4 Lonely Man Dinners.. My folks was cooking. Pops was coming home to a home cooked meal. People clipped coupons. People went to 2-3 grocery stores.
At some point, in this microwave society, people starting thinking that not only do you deserve to eat out half the month, but that it should also be affordable. Who in the fukk told you that? As someone else said, as the demand goes up, so does the price. So yea.. We can sit here and cry. But guess what that isn't going to do? Lower prices.
Seems your best bet would be to return to the times of old and cook your own damn food and price the ingredients throughout the week so you can make market runs on Saturday. Like your momma used to do. You can complain AND shop smart. What is retarded though, is complaining and NOT shopping smart. Who are you punishing except yourself?
FixedBiden/Democrat apologists still lying and acting like the economy is great and that groceries ain't at astronomical prices

Who the fukk is eating out every night, I don’t no anybody eating fast food several times a week, everybody is fukking cooking, just like they parents and they parents parents so I need to see real stats on who is eating out cause yal keep using that as some smoking gun to shame people
But fukk that, I don’t give a fukk if a mf want to eat fast food everyday, fast food should be affordable for that to be possible, yall making this a negative about consumers when this is really a negative on the corporations, nobody in this country should be worried about affording food regardless of what they want to buy, companies raising prices not because of no economic reasoning, they only do it because they allowed to fukk over the consumer as much as possible, at this very moment it’s fukking child labor and cheap illegal immigrants working at these food plants making pennies on the dollar, but yet they keep raising prices, ain’t no fukking demand going up for these bullshyt ass food products, we all out here eating the same fukking Walmart food brands so I don’t know what the fukk you talking about, anytime shyt like this come up it’s always the consumer fault this why shyt don’t change cause yall make every excuse in the world for these companies to do whatever the fukk they want to
