this small portion of groceries cost me over $225 today. my paycheck is bled dry immediately everytime i fucking get it. should i just stop eating?
>>85887067youre buying shit nigga maybe cook things yourself
things are just more expensive because of the war where we killed their religious leader and demanded unconditional surrender
>>85887067Brooo I promise I just sent a similar pic to my mom last night. There's a few boxes of dried fruits missing from the pic but it was 160 altogether.
>>85887230you're buying actual slop, there's no way that's 225$, you're actually retarded and useless anon
>>85887230Niggas too much of a pussy to get the spicy patties
>>85887238Where did I say it's 225? How is yogurt, fruit, eggs, and milk slop? kys
>>85887067Cook for yourself instead of buying premade slop you fucking retard. If you did that you would have twice the food for that same price. Stop being so godamn lazy, you fucking subhuman, even pigs eat better than you.
12 pounds of lentils for under $20 and you already have rice. you're not going to starve unless you're trying. you can get milk and eggs instead of trash with no nutritional value.
>>85887330Eggs are 10 dollars
>>85887353get more milk instead then. i doubt they're that much most places though maybe you have something weird going on with that.
>>85887330>Bro, just eat grool everydayYou "people" are actual demons.No one likes a bootlicker, not even the government, useful idiots is what they think of you.
>>85887253He was being lazy with his vernacular. Your purchases are not slop, mostly (the chicken patties certainly are slop, however) but they're luxury, relatively speaking. None of the stuff in your cart are actually healthy staple foods, but instead fun stuff. And the fun stuff is definitely pricey.
>>85887386The milk is 20 dollars.
it makes me feel sad seeing anons who didn't buy bitcoin years ago, it actually fucking sucks being poor, if I woke up poor I'd put in every waking moment into making money by any means necessary because there would be nothing else
>>85887449>chicken patties certainly are slopyeah I know, I just grabbed them and the nuggets underneath as a snack really. I have eggs, cheese, apples, greens, yogurt, and bananas. How isn't that healthy?
>>85887487It's not the 1600s anymore, so saying something like "yogurt is healthy" is meaningless. Some yogurt is just sugar and dairy, which just causes inflammation. Modern fruit has nearly no nutritional value at all, it's just sugar and indigestible cellulose. Same for modern vegetables, almost no nutritional value whatsoever, but instead pesticides to poison your gut.>>85887353Where are eggs 10 dollars? I screenshot these just now, it's incredibly cheap.

>>85887230This looks like it should be $50 lmaolol
>>85887514>Where are eggs 10 dollars? I screenshot these just now, it's incredible Those are the cheap nasty eggs. Type in pasture raised, free farm, open range, organic eggs. Yes there's a difference and yes it matters.>>85887559Because it used to be!
>>85887592I agree that those are bottom-of-the-barrel eggs from tortured hens, though what I posted is surely what people are referring to when they say "eggs" in a conversation about egg prices.Even the fancy eggs aren't ten dollars a dozen, though.
>>85887626>is surely what people are referring to when they say "eggs" in a conversation about egg prices.It's not. >>85887626>Even the fancy eggs aren't ten dollars a dozen, thoughYes there are. Do you even live in the US
>>85887683I do live in the US, yes.Just saying "nuh uh" is not a compelling argument, so if you want to make a case that convinces, you'll have to actually show some pics.
>>85887230those precut fruit cups are a scam. A cup costs what like 5kg of fruit would cost. Same with the leafs with perhaps less margin. You can get a head of lettuce or cabbage for that price, mince it, bag it and store it in your fridge.Is that choc milk? Get fucking regular milk and purchase some non sweetened cacao powder (not the jewquick or similar) you dumbass. That way you still get the good stuff of both the milk and cacao.Fucking kill yourself. Here is your (you) for baiting me
>>85887739It's not chocolate milk (although she seems to have a bottle of strawberry milk); it's apple cider.I'm fucking pissed at how costly apple cider has become in the last half-decade. It's insane. Don't they just take the worst looking apples during prime apple harvest season and toss them whole into a press? It's not even filtered, literally lazy, no work, and somehow a half gallon is like $4-7 these days. When I was a kid it was probably $1.25.
>>85887683Egg prices at Whole Foods market, schizo.
>>85887067>>85887230Wtf are you niggas buying?Here's what you do, buy chicken breast, the cheap potatoes that come in 2kg bags, greek yogurt, cucumber and cabbage or lettuce, go home, make a gyro plate every day and just eat that in perpetuity, you're saving money and being healthier.
>>85887739>those precut fruit cups are a scamThey were a snack. There's apples, pears, bananas, and blackberries in there but you can't see them under the other stuff.>head of lettuceDon't want that.>choc milk? Get fucking regular milkNo. I drink only raw milk. It's apple cider and Kefir.>Fucking kill yourselfObviously from my grocery choices I would very much like to live.Now please KYS for making me type all of this to your bait post.
>>85887767IT LITERALLY SAYS 10.99 AND 999 IN YOUR OWN PIC.>but it's on sale so that doesn't count ;p
>>85887828Are you okay? Wow.A single brand at a single store charges $9.99, and not actually, since the store discounts them because otherwise nobody would buy.The $10.99 is for jumbo-size XL eggs, not normal eggs.You need to take a deep breath, accept that you are not as smart as you once thought, and concede the point, so that you can rejoin reality.Nobody in the US is talking about>Vital Farms Pasture-Raised Organic XL eggswhen they say "eggs are ten dollars a dozen".There, I've done the legwork to prove that you are a mentally ill midwit. Now thank me, and be humble.
>>85887828bro it's literally the most expensive brand at the most expensive grocery store in the country
>>85887067>Not a single vegetable in sightDo Americans really?
>>85887845>these eggs that are 8 dollars and 50 cents do not count because that's under 10 dollars actually. But also the eggs that are 10 dollars also do not count because well they just don't that's why. >>85887867Those are the ones I wanted>>85887887I was gonna get spinach but it goes bad so quick. Veggies are too much work.
>>85887067i used to call these posts fake until i went to the us and saw your prices. you guys have a problem with monopolies. everything sold in american supermarkets is like x5 more expensive. its a total scam.
>>85887990We're basically canada now. eggs are a luxury food item.
>>85887767>Posting Whole Foods unironicallyWhere they have a dozen workers walking around doing nothing. Post an actual lean-running grocery store, not a posh, pork-barrel daycare operation. You want to shop at giga-fancy store with polished wood-grain verneer on everything instead of plain metal shelves, then yes, you're paying extra for the carpenters to build it and the maintenance men to maintain it and the artist to write "EGGS, YAY :D" on a piece of chalkboard. You're getting exactly what you pay for.
>>85887067This nigga paid 200 dollars for some bread this economy is cooked
>Beans>Pasta>Raw Chicken>RiceIf you're poor or need to save money, you should be buying those and making most of your meals from it. Add in some spices, sauces, etc. to beat taste fatigue.
>>85888137>you should be eating like a peasant >just ignore everything costing more
Only not struggling because my partnertook on a dangerous high paid job. And even then I think twice about buying a lot of things. I will see the price of chocolate or a pack of chicken and like fuck that im having toast but even butter is expensive. And we arent super poor or anything. Im just getting resentful about it all. I worked part time at kfc in college and I feel I had more financial freedom then because of my low rent. I didnt think about what I was buying. >>85887592I pay 10 britbux for 30 proper home farm eggs delivered to my door. Feels like a good deal and nice to support a local business. Wouldnt touch battery eggs either
>>85887230Holy goyslop
>>85888143You've never been white & poor.>just ignore everything costing moreWhat will not ignoring it do? Will it put more money in your bank account? Give you a raise at your job? Magically lower prices?
>>85888143>Goyslop is upper class foodNigga you're a neet with all the time in the world to learn how to cook good meals,there's no excuse.
>>85887782Is that supposed to look appetizing in the slightest. Just blobs of yogurt and random greens. Yuck
>>85888145>proper home farm eggsVery good deal.
>>85887067I don't get how people can still be fat with how expensive this shit is.
>>85888194Because the healthy stuff costs even more than the shit that makes you fat
>>85887442sorry i didn't suggest more sugary textured grool? you eat food to survive and keep your health in check. it's weird people make it anything other than that, especially if they're struggling to eat in general. it's obviously not ideal and better food shouldn't be that expensive but it's better than what he's doing. i don't get how being practical makes me a bootlicker.
>>85888211>just eat beans bro
>>85888194Gibs plus EBT, even the poorest of poor can afford to be obese.>>85888230>I keep buying goyslop and am too lazy to cook>Why can't I afford more goyslop
>>85887067>Give billions to other countries instead of farmers.>Give billions to AI datacenters instead of food supply lines.>Give trillions to military industrial complex to babysit foreign countries who can't behave properly.>The country has no patriots to sack the gov't who is complacent with all this so long as they can steal money from the taxpayer.Yeah, food is going to be expensive, and unfortunately, everyone deserves it. When patriots sleep on the job, corruption and bad behavior does what it pleases.
>>85887067You could have bought meat, milk and fruit instead and have been much better off
>>85888264You forget that only a handful of companies are responsible for the vast majority of food at grocery stores. Entire aisles are sometimes just one company with their many brands they own.
>>85888279Wtf why would I want to eat like a poor person?
>>85888230if he's too poor to afford anything else of sustenance, yes. and if he's going to use the same amount of money he can get milk eggs and meat. i was going to say meat before but i knew someone was going to complain and someone did about the eggs anyway. but if it's between beans and donuts there's an obvious right choice.
>>85888281Are you suggesting there may be a monopoly? Maybe. But if there is, it's a defacto monopoly caused by large companies leveraging their size against smaller ones. Gov't compliance comes with prohibitively high prices for farms so that smaller operations can't be competitive. The laws are designed so that only large megacompanies can be in compliance, because those companies have a larger amount of products thus a larger amount of paying customers to absorb the prohibitive governmental costs. I don't think price fixing is an issue here.But whether that's true or not, our enemy remains the same people and the appropriate reaction to them remains the same as well.
>>85888421Technically they aren't a monopoly, but they have the most resources to flood aisles and push the other companies to the worst areas. At this point it's better to just buy store brands for a lot of things as it's 90-99% the same as the brand name shit.
>>85887900That is an impressively stupid post.If I put a dozen eggs up for sale on ebay for $20,000 USD, your proposed logic would conclude that "eggs in America cost $20,000".Just buy cheaper eggs, you alcohol fetal syndrome victim.
>>85888109I actually posted the prices for eggs in>Walmart>Target>Kroger>Whole FoodsIn response to the dumbfuck woman in this thread who said that "Eggs are 10 dollars".
>>85888143Nigga you are a peasant if you complain food is too expensive. If you weren't in this position you would not care about rising costs at all.
>>85888194The cheapest shit is the most fattening thats why poor people are the fattest
>>85888194My nigga eating empty calories and not exercising will get you big quick. It costs less than 15 bucks to get a combo meal at a fast food joint with some fries, a main sandwich, and a drink but 15 dollars isn't enough to buy the bread, oil, vegetables, juice, the flour, spices, all of that and also the time it takes to actually prepare it all. It is unironically cheaper to get fat off empty junk calories than it is to get fat or fit by eating leaner and cleaner
>>85889117You're full of shit man. Fast food is not even close to worth the price of ingredients, which is exactly why they are receiving less business recently. You're straight up a fat liar. Go eat mcdonalds fatty.
just buy stuff that is 2 dollars max you retards
destroy capitalismussaussaussa
>>85887067I do a lot of shopping at Chinese grocery stores that have competitive pricing
>>85889141Nigga please you're cruising for a bruising
>>85889181Yeah alright fatty. 15 dollars a serving is deal? Okay man. You're trolling.
>>85889207I never said it was a deal, stupid. Fast food can be cheaper or quicker than earing leaner and by cooking meals yourself. Niggas be drinking starbucks coffee first thing in the morning and that bitch can have hella calories and shit. You dont get fat by eating normal portions of healthy cooking, you get fat by eating too much junk and not burning the calories and shit
>>85889227>It is unironically cheaper to get fat off empty junk calories than it is to get fat or fit by eating leaner and cleaner
What do I win, brobots?
>>85889245Little caesars still has pizzas under 10 bucks. One pizza alone is 2k calories. If you were to buy eggs, milk, bread, vegetables, soda, would it be cheaper than a pizza under 10 bucks? If your goal is to get fat or fit would those basic ingredients be enough to acheive either one of those? Would it be cheaper and quicker than fast food? Some nigga asked how people get fat when shit is expensive. When people are already living outside of their means they couldn't give a fuck whether they can afford starbucks in the morning, mcdonalds for lunch, and pizza hut for dinner
>>85887067Stop buying processed slop with zero nutrition. Today I got 15 lbs of grassfed beef and grassfed lamb, 3 lbs of beef liver, 120 eggs, and a carton of foofy A2 milk for about $115. That's over two weeks of food. I could easily get lower quality (but still extremely nutritious) versions of the same foods for even less. Are your numbers in canadian or australian dollars or something? I'm not even in a small town with cheap food, I live in a major metro area.>>85887353They're $9 here... for a case of 60.
>>85889303nta. It's cheaper to buy flour and water and the cheapest cheese possible and one squirt of pitiful pasta sauce.
>>85889430Okay, maybe it isnt cheaper, but if op is asking why people still stay fat when things are expensive. Even if fast food were less cost effective and more expensive than cooking yourself, if you're fat then odds are you have little impulse control and little self control which would make you less the type to buy ingredients, cook food yourself, plan your meals, plan your caloric intake, and spend less in the process but instead make impulse purchases and splurge on junk
>>85889328>15 lbs of grassfed beef and grassfed lamb, 3 lbs of beef liver, 120 eggs, and a carton of foofy A2 milk for about $115bullshit
>>85889520Walmart, dude. $6.26/lb for grassfed 80/20 ground beef, $4.30something/lb for lamb breast, liver's always dirt cheap, $9/60 egg bulk cases, $4.60something for a half gallon of A2 milk. I mean all of this shit is at least double what it cost five years ago, but it's still affordable despite being the healthiest, most nutritious food you can eat.
>>85887067Why'd you post a thumbnail if you yourself took this photo? Are you posting from a Nokia?
>>85889566Do you live in the middle of nowhere?You're already poor so why bother talking down to other people who are struggling in cities?
>>85887067Nigga I probably use less than that in a month and even eat relatively healthy. Major skill issue.
>>85889566you must live in one of the cheapest areas in the country if that's the price. 9$ for 60 eggs is stupidly good anywhere
>>85889960Read the thread and stop making baseless assumptions.
>>85889971No, I live in one of the most expensive areas in the US.
>>85887067mothafukkin white cheddar cheez-its in the air bnb
>>85889328most days i wake up feeling too sick and dizzy to cook. it's all i can do just to throw something in the microwave
>>85887476How much BTC did you get
>>85887900>I was gonna get spinach but it goes bad so quickIf you eat it slowly yeah. Cook it up and you can eat a whole bag in one sitting. Anyway just buy frozen veggies and use what you want each meal. They're dirt cheap, nutritioned and filling.>Veggies are too much work.Malnutritioned goy.
>>85890311Most days all I do is throw a pound of ground beef in an air fryer and set the timer. Literally the same operation as a microwave. Real food doesn't have to be fancy or complicated, in fact its healthier if it's plain.But it sounds to me like maybe you need to NOT eat for a few days. Almost all diseases and ailments are caused by a toxic diet, and you can find a ton of relief by simply removing the offending foods. Fasting has a ton of health and healing benefits, so even if you're not ready to adopt a proper diet you can at least have some relief and repair for your system.
>>85888211Bro just eat flavorless nutritionally void gruel every day and get back to work for Shekelstein
>>85888143Everyone is proud to be a slave, its like they compete for who can be the most crushed>just carry water on your head, what do you need a car for
>>85888194Shit food makes you unhealthy
