      Problem is they’re not, they’re still buying it. Which is insane to me. I’m a bodybuilder, I weigh and cook all my food, this doesn’t effect me in the slightest. Just blows my mind how bad my countrymen eat. Why do Americans eat pure sugar for breakfast? I’d feel awful.

      @M1999-v4v 5 месяцев назад +10

      The reason why people are still buying is because people are working two and three jobs just to make a living, one job doesn't work anymore. In today's world you have to have at least two jobs to be able to pay your rent and pay for the taxes on your house. Working two jobs how will you have time to be able to cook?

      @@M1999-v4v you need to be creative. I cook twice a week. That food last around three days before I start not wanting to eat it. When I leave the house, I put boiling hot water in a thermos and close it for 20 minutes. Then I heat up my food and put it inside the thermos. Sometimes, I freeze the thermos and then put 370 g of Greek yogurt and one scoop of protein in there. Then I eat a banana with it. It’s really not that hard, you just have to be willing to put in the small amount of effort to make it happen. And that is what blows my mind, someone can’t spend 2 to 3 hours a week cooking their food. I mean, is that insanely hard?

      A burger, fries, drink and soup was cheaper at Chili's, $10.99, cheaper than any fast food place in town and the burger quality is better than any fast food place. Sit down places have become much cheaper and faster than fast food places. I waited 20 minutes at chic fila a month ago, and they got my order wrong. I ordered Chili's tonight online, didn't wait and by the time I got there the food was ready, there's other options, these greedy fast food joints won't learn until we give them the neon lit sign, inflation is artificially high because of these places, there's simply no other reason, farmers aren't getting paid more... It starts with distribution and works it's way through the likes of McDonald's, do you remember when they played games with eggs a few months ago... people started raising their own chickens and others were buying from those people, eggs quickly found its way down to a normal price, and even dipped to a 5 year low here, people stopped buying them.

      Years ago, for the fun of it, I would see how cheaply I could make a whole meal(per plate). It would consist of neat, starch, and vegetables. The last one I did was 92 cents! And the portion sizes on the plate were not small either. My husband said he would gladly pay $12.95 if that was in a restaurant. I’m todays higher grocery prices, that same meal may cost me $2.00 to make. So many people today just don’t know how to manage their money.

      Buy a whole chicken when they’re on sale. Roast it, get a few meals. Pull remaining meat and make a stock from the rest of carcass/bones. Use stock to make a lg batch of soup, stew, sauces, etc - freeze portions flat in ziplocks (label/date). Repeat every sale making a different dish with every chicken. You’ll have a good variety soon. I do alot of stews to serve over rice, which i have a rice cooker for. I eat VERY cheap!
