RE: Completion Of The SNAP Food Budget Challenge - Living On $29 Per Week
We are so well off in the West, but it is as if almost everyone complains about costs. But that is just how most people are, they like to complain.
Plus, we produce so much food in an efficient manner that many of our food costs have actually decreased compared to 50 or 60 years ago after taking inflation into account.
There shouldn't be anyone going hungry in the USA when it costs just $2 per day.
You are so right. Think about how people 60 years ago used to talk about "living on beans" when they were poor--meat was expensive! People these days take food way more for granted than back then.
