I really like that term, “food desert.”

1st World problem.

It looks like the residents of DC have chosen starvation as the way to cure their lack of impulse control.

In most situations, food deserts are caused by a lack of grocery stores.

Supermarkets that provide healthy food tend to be located in areas that are deemed “risk-free.”

Pretty much my entire life has been lived more than 20 miles from a grocery store but somehow I’ve survived.

Lemme guess. This store not where the elite send their housekeepers to shop.

Yeah. Good luck finding any kind of solid definition, though.

I've heard it described as a residential area where access to nutritional food, fresh meats, fruits and vegetables, is over 1 mile away.

Poor us. That describes 95% of the United States, mostly rural areas.

In actuality, it's a political term, an epithet directed at "whitey."
