How the fuck? In this economy?
>>
>>21757247
In a good economy like the one Trump is making/fixing things are cheaper and abundance is the norm. Vote conservative execute communism.

I’m confused, isn’t this crappy dessert food always cheap?
>>
>>21757247
If those buddy bars didn't ALWAYS taste fucking burned it would be such a good deal.

you guys eat this stuff?

>>21757291
Yeah

Why can EBT people buy snickers?
>>
>>21757296
Imagine if you denied ebt negroes luxuries like candy and cheese balls. Crime rates would probably shoot up even more if their energy levels go up from eating healthier.

Snack industry lobbying.

I assume because garbage like this is a loss leader at dollar tree and someone is always going to buy a 6 dollar bag of chips or a 17 dollar bag of beef jerky unless they're literally homeless
>>
>>21757268
not especially, no
in a food desert you're at the whim of whatever convenience/general store is within reach, and they tend to price things knowing that you have no other choices

but also this looks like walmart's website, so it's not a foid desert (yet)
>>
>>21757320
that's dollar tree Walmart doesnt sell anything for 1.25
>>
>>21757258
Correction: corn syrup slop produced domestically is cheaper while everyone else has an extra 0 at the end.
>>
>>21757332
Walmart sells things for 41 cents thoughbeit
>>
>>21757372
the lowest priced item at my local Walmart other than bananas are these packages of rice

I like the cheddar broccoli one.
>>
>>21757411
the cheddar broccoli pasta one with the twirly pasta is the best one out of all the variants I feel. the mushroom rice one is by far the worst. honorable mention to creamy chicken.

I noticed some fucked up shit today when buying candy
the smallest box is by far way cheaper than any bagged option
even not on sale it would be cheaper than the 14 dollar bag at .37 cents per ounce
>>
>>21757438
I also noticed this while buying Great Value paprika. The smallest little bottle is way cheaper by ounce than the large one. so I bought 14 small and dumped them into an empty large one. (the large one is 79.2 cents per ounce)

I’ve also noticed this, stores are definitely shifting away from the larger quantities being cheapest per ounce. Banking on people not noticing i assume

my Walmart stopped selling the huge 1 pound tubs of paprika at the start of covid and never brought them back and AFAIK there hasn't been a global paprika shortage for 6 years so yeah it's just a bunch of underhanded nonsense
>>
>>21757446
>14 small and dumped them into an empty large one.
14 at 2.5 ounce each is nearly 2 pounds.
that's a lot of paprika

you gotta watch out with these strange pricing
>>
>>21757466
I use almost a pound of paprika when I make 1 large pot of chicken paprikash it's very good even with Walmart paprika.

https://food52.com/recipes/25371-oma-s-chicken-paprikash

the dumplings part of this recipe is wack though I'd ignore it. says to cool for "1 to 2 minutes" yeah right they're undercooked snot at 2 minutes

Are you sure? Do they not have the single serving ramen packets that used to be 25 cents 2 years ago but are now 41-48 cents?

Average caloric intake in the USSR was 3700 and it was actual real food
>>
>>21758379
hmm yeah they do have those I wonder why they don't show up in price sorted low > high in all food items
>>
>>21758388
lol 3700 calories of human flesh and stale bread
>>
>>21757438
take it as a sign buy the smaller one and portion it instead of downing a bigger one in one sitting
>>
>>21757438
>>21757446
>>21757458
That’s interesting, I wonder if the smaller sizes are getting filtered out of whatever method they’re using to bump up the profit margin on the rest of the items.

I didn’t work in grocery but at places I worked at before they’d use price increase multipliers to try to sneak extra profit in whenever the vendor increased costs

Because the UDSA food pyramid is stupid. Whenever someone says "food stamps should only cover foods with good nutrition", it is pointed that according to the government, Doritos are better for you than pork chops. They come to realize it's better to just let people buy what they want, with some eating junk, rather than have the retarded food pyramid fuck it up for everyone. Both the food pyramid and food stamps come from the USDA.

(Faux) Danish cookies at Dollar Tree are 4oz ($1.25)
(Real) Danish cookies on Amazon are 12oz (3.99)
You're saving about eight cents when you eat the Dollar Tree cookies ($1.25 vs $1.33)

>That’s interesting, I wonder if the smaller sizes are getting filtered out of whatever method they’re using to bump up the profit margin on the rest of the items.
I know they sell those small boxes at dollar tree.
but I can't imagine that's the reason, it might be though
>>21758402
the "bigger" one is less than an ounce more, at 250% price increase, wtf
>>
>>21757247
not food.
>>
>>21758774
Cool it with the racism.
>>
>>21758481
are you time traveling from 1999?
the food pyramid was replaced fucking 20 years ago
>Make half your plate fruits and vegetables
>Make at least half your grains whole
https://www.myplate.gov/

you are spouting nonsense that has nothing to do with reality and spinning a story that fits your narrative
>>
>>21758481
