Too bad that great entrepreneurial spirit has tried this before. The reason they are “food deserts” is because these places get ripped off and robbed constantly...owner closes and no more lettuce available in ‘da hood.

It’s called inventory shrinkage in the business. People helping themselves to food without paying. That’s why there are no grocery stores in the inner cities.
Until you can change that (good luck), no dice.

“The White House says the collective effort will result in serving nearly 10 million Americans who currently have little affordable food alternatives to convenience stores and fast food chains.”

Do they just make this sh!t up? Ummmmm yes they do.

Go chomp a double cheese, fries and a shake Moochelle and I will drive all over town looking for a salad. Really? Drive all over town or take a bus? Where do these people come from?

Maybe if it wasn’t economic suicide to open stores in those areas, they wouldn’t have to.

For about $1.50/week, Amazon will ship groceries to you without charge. Ex.: 50lbs rice for ~$63, to your door.

If you’re in a desert, you leave because there is no food.
If you’re in a “food desert”, LEAVE.

“Food Deserts” are usually in urban areas where grocery stores can’t survive because of shoplifting, robbery, and other crime.

Let ‘em eat cake.

If there is a market for fresh vegetables someone will pop up to service it. These companies are agreeing to lose money in exchange for the good publicity.

So. Mobama is concerned about so called “food deserts” in the low income neighborhoods.

Well, howzabout she pillow talk her husband into cutting out the welfare and food stamps that allows Holder’s people to buy soda and junk food at the local corner store?

Now THAT would be a step in the right direction.

National chains participating in the partnership include Wal-Mart, Walgreens and SuperValu, which have agreed to open or expand more than 1,000 locations as part of the effort to eliminate what the Department of Agriculture calls “food deserts” throughout the country.

I thought demoRATs & unions hated the mega-stores like Wal-Mart, and I am sure that Walgreens & SuperValu draw the same heaping scorn from the marxist lefties. But all of a sudden phat ass mabelle-michelle promotes an idea and the slobbering, fawning marxist media fall all over themselves slobbering what a great idea it is. For two reasons -- she's black & she's a socialist. Any white conservative woman who would have suggested it, would have been savagely attacked for going against unions.

On a side note, it looks like phat-ass mabelle-michelle is already packing extra watermelons in her bloated thighs & big butt.

Michelle Obama unveiled the latest push in her healthy-eating campaign Wednesday, announcing several national and regional food retailers have pledged to expand into a string of low-income markets where finding nutritious food options is nearly impossible.

Reading between the lines here makes me wonder if there are going to be government subsidies for these retailers to do this.

Don't know for sure, but I suspect there will be some kind of taxpayer incentive to, you know, nudge these retailers to do something that would be against sound business practices and if that doesn't work, the man said, next comes the shove.

“The Obama administration is committing $35 million to the effort this year and is proposing $330 million from the budget next year.”

Sooooo...these stores aren’t exactly ‘volunteering’, are they?

This is particularly amusing coming from the First Grease trap.
