There’s also no fresh food or produce. It’s all long shelf life processed food.

I study food and I find processed food is lower calorie per dollar, than their fresh alternatives.

It's contrary to advertisments who make you think you are saving money by buying "cheap processed foods".

Lower calorie per dollar, as long as none of it gets thrown out as waste.
