A solid chunk of the US population lives in a food desert. They're lucky to even have a Walmart within driving distance. You've clearly never had to walk a few miles on highway to reach the nearest grocery store. I can tell you from experience it's not particularly fun.

Not sure why you're minimizing this reality. 1 in 6 Americans don't know where their next meal is coming from. https://www.ers.usda.gov/webdocs/publications/42711/12716_ap...

I am not reading a 600 page, 15 year old report of out dated info, however a search of the report shows zero references to "1 in 6 Americans " nor "next meal"

So if you have a source to back that actual claim I would be happy to look at it, and likely refute why it is cherry picking data

>>A solid chunk of the US population lives in a food desert.

Food Deserts are a political term, largely attributed to urban not rural area's and ever every study you find talking about Food Deserts I can find at least 1 if not more refuting that actual data.
