Sure but then you do "poor mans lasagna" which is just the meat sauce and pasta with cheese on top.

you can do that in a Instapot with no fuss in the same amount of time it would take to make a store meal

There are plently of Quick and Easy ways to make your own healthy meals. For me I do Meal Prep Sundays, and make my own freezer meals. Far cheaper and better than the store bought.

Further I doubt many of them are "working multiple jobs" the vast majority of that junk food it likely coming from government assistance money, disability, etc because if as you said they are "hobbled to their mobility scooter" then chances are they found a doctor to put them on disability

I see you have never been poor. I hope you never learn the harsh realities of poverty in our country.

Edit: I remember watching my mom ration her insulin. I sure wish we could have been “welfare leeches” because that would have been super neat.

I feel for your mother but the conversation was about food, not medicine. Food in America is the most affordable in the world relative to income. Medicine is, unfortunately, among the most unaffordable.

I grew up in a trailer park in the 80's and 90's. My toys were a old used bike and the woods behind the trailer park.

but no, I dont know anything about being poor....
