That said, store owners in poor
neighborhoods, like store owners everywhere, know their customers and

Hostess Twinkies and malt liquor, they'll stock that instead. It is a
tribute to our wonderfully enlightened policies that people can
actually use government food stamps to buy junk food, and it sells
very well.


That's pretty well how it works in my area too. just go through any
convenience store. Pizza, beer and chips is the fare of the day.

And you know this because you live in the inner city? Doubtful.

I guess the NY Times is, as usual, just wrong, because it's not a
right-wing publication?

Getting a job is supposed to be easier.

$1 a day would be hard, but not $5.87 a day. In fact my under $1
rye-whole-wheat with caraway seeds loaf is putting thee aroma through
the house as I write.

Next one s going to be breakfast bread. It has cinnamon, raisins,
fruit, whole wheat flour....it is about $2.30 to make but I defy anyone
to find better.

I don't know how much more simple an egg can get, but at 20 cents or
less for an egg and so many ways too cook it...

As for fresh fruit, July, August and September we don't buy any as we
end up disposing of a lot, not sure what to do with 25 gallons of
apples, then there is the raspberries and strawberries. The later two
we freeze for the fall/winter. Lots of apple pie, strudel, apple out
the ears.

Trouble is you lazy fleabaggers never even bothered to learn how to
cook. Maybe they should put you in a cage with a placard that says
"Totally useless animal".
