LOL! It’s a vicious place. You should see the Amish out here, wrestling starving children to the ground for an ear of corn.

Starches are generally the cheapest foods. You can pick up 50 lbs. of rice for about $12 and 50 lbs. of beans for $20 at the local Costco.

Q. Why do you not see poor people at Costco?

A. Poor people never have the extra $50.00 that it takes to join the first time you shop there. That is how they filter out the riff-raff.

Until quite recently the fee was $35, but I must admit the clientele is a little more upscale than what you see at Walmart.

Since when did “hunger” get redefined as “limited or recurrent lack of access to nutritional and safe food”?
