They’re eating something...
Macaroni and cheese, probably. Cheap. Tastes good. Lots of calories. There is even a “macaroni and cheese index”: The economy is tanking the purchase of macaroni and cheese goes up.
One of the problems of being poor is that you don’t buy good food like fruits and veggies. You buy processed stuff like mac ‘n cheese.
Or someone. I hope they're not planning on going to the Demoncrap Convention. They'll starve to death.
