Of course... but if you can’t afford enough healthful food, you have to settle for carbs.

To: Tired of Taxes

I live in a rural area and I grew up on a ranch-everyone grows a garden here and even if you don’t know how, the produce at the small-chain grocery store is local, organic and reasonably priced. the fresh meat is reasonable, too. I’ve been poor living in a city as a single mom years ago-I still managed to budget my food dollars for fresh stuff. There is plenty of fresh food available cheap in stores-you just have to buy the reasonably priced stuff and cook it. Settling for carbs is why we have an obesity problem even with kids-they are not healthy. The same people who say they can only afford carbs now will still be saying that if DJT is in office again and food is reasonably priced-have you noticed that those same people have money for a case of sodas, a few boxes of sugary cereal and a few packages of cookies?
