    I know that a lot of Americans could lose some weight but there is a difference between dieting and not being able to afford food.

          Same answer as to CXORA above. From my experience quality food is usually more expensive. You can also compare something healthy you cook vs something unhealthy you throw into microwave.

        I don’t think that’s true. But poorer people tend to have less time available to cook.

            Are you saying vegetables, meat and rice are more expensive per serving than pre-packaged food where you live?

      You are being overly dramatic here with your statement!

      The only difference between eating 50grs of chicken a day because you are on a diet and eating 50grs of chicken a day because that’s what you can afford is merely conceptual!

      You are taking this with the wrong attitude! The Great Leader is making the prices go up so your weak will doesn’t have any problems to stick to a diet that will make you thinner!
