Its no longer food stamps by the way,,, that had a bad sound,, now the lazy use an EBT card.

Your right,, they don't care about food prices since you and I are paying for their food.. They can buy Rib Eye Steaks, Pork Loin, the best coffee, candy, anything they want on your and my dime. Must be nice..is this a wonderful country or what!!!

PS,, I have gone Galt........screw the libs/Rinos......I pay few taxes and have little, at least on paper......

Well if they are eating a poor in nutrition diet then it won’t matter for you will it?

Snack foods and other poor food choices are expensive.

I picked up some parsnips and turnips for 48 cents a pound last week.

Parsnips are very tasty esp. for those of us with againg tasted buds.

We have a few grocery stores around us, Aldi, Sams, Jewel, etc. Jewel is by far the most expensive, nearly 7 bucks for a gallon of milk. I can get that same gallon at Aldi for 3 bucks. We shop for a family of 6 for around 300 a week. My brother shops at Jewel because he says Aldi is crap (same food basically, not the nice ambiance) and for his family of 3, he says he spends 700 a week.

Now, on to the story, did our shopping yesterday (Thursday), and we came out to $350. Usually, we are about $275-300. Same thing last week. We were wondering if it was the holiday season, or just some drastic inflation over the last two weeks, and we were talking about this very subject today, going over our receipt when we noticed that all meats had gone up about 20% over the last couple of weeks.

If a republican had been the POTUS this would have been all over the news nightly, about the grinches and the poor suffering women and children who can’t afford to eat before Christmas. Instead, we get crickets.

But, to my original point (I got distracted), we do have to shop at Jewel for certain items that Aldi does not carry (specialty foods for an elderly family member we take care of), and we always take notice of those in check-out that are paying for their food with a food card.

I’ve commented on this before, we’ve seen them leave and get into Escalades with spinning rims, we’ve seen them shop in fur coats, and hair-dos that must cost over a hundred bucks, with finger nails 3 inches long, all painted up.

What gets me above all else, is that we ourselves can’t in good conscience spend 700 a week on food at an upscale grocery store, yet those on government aid have no problem doing so. THAT’S MY MONEY YOU ARE SPENDING!

I’m not saying folks on aid should be eating cat food, but for God’s sake, they should not be allowed to buy food from upscale grocery stores on my dime.

/rant off
