When one is poor they generally eat low-quality fattening foods, not an expensive salad and a piece of Salmon.

The rich tend to eat pricier lean foods, they don’t use fillers like starches and hamburger helper, and fatty cheap cuts and proteins.

"I don't know why they call this stuff 'Hamburger Helper', it does just fine by itself."

“The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is the largest federal nutrition assistance program. SNAP provides benefits to eligible low-income individuals and families via an Electronic Benefits Transfer card. This card can be used like a debit card to purchase eligible food in authorized retail food stores”

I see people using these in my grocery store all the time.

Seems to me the SNAP program allows for purchasing all the healthy food one would need.....couple that with the brandon administration touting how low unemployment is and I just don’t understand the problem.

you know what?
they can get a salad at Mickey D’s just as easily as getting a grilled chix sandwich.
and skip the fries, or just eat less of them.
If they cooked food they could eat better.
I’m trying not to cry for them right now.
