Every year or two I make a monster batch of eggplant lasagna -
and freeze a lot of it. (It's really good the way I make it - I like it anyway.)

So I was just working up this Sunday's shopping list for this project.
With food prices the way they have been, I try to keep somewhere
within a 'sane' distance from my budget.

So I've decided to buy the ingredients for this over two weeks -
over two Sunday's of shopping trips.

So - eggplant lasagna on the 'installment plan'.
I'll make the stuff the second week after the second trip.

Of course this is no great 'hardship' - but it's an 'attention-getter' for sure.
For me anyway.

We can get it to at least 3. Let’s go Biden. And then the media will praise Chomo Joe for bringing down Obesity.

If you think so, I’d like to know they are praying, I wonder who they’re voting for?

https://news.nationwide.com/101722-americans-making-tradeoffs-to-pay-health-care-costs/?utm_source=prn Here's the top line:

The research was conducted online in the United States by The Harris Poll on behalf of Nationwide among 1,140 adults age 18+ residing in the U.S. (“national sample”), including 283 Gen Z (18-25), 285 Millennials (26-41), 286 Gen X (42-57), 286 Boomers+ (58+). The survey was conducted August 26 – September 8, 2022. Data are weighted where necessary for those age 26+ by age by gender, race/ethnicity, region, education, marital status, household size, household income and propensity to be online to bring them in line with their actual proportions in the population. Gen Z (18-25) data are weighted by age by gender, race/ethnicity, region, education, size of household and propensity to be online.

crappola headline "nearly 1 in 5"(20%)...when the number they give is 18%

Crappola survey...1140 adults polled.
Not sure how they can extrapolate that over the entire country.

U.S. population is approx. 338,359,137
so far, 2022 fiscal year, 41,207,587 persons are on S.N.A.P. which is approx. 12% of the population.
