You laugh, you lose

It's not a myth at all.

Ex:
Orange soda (liter): $0.88 vs. Milk (half gallon): $3.80(+)

Whatever is cheaper to produce will be cheaper in the market, and anything that is hydrogenated or saturated with high fructose corn syrup is mainly the cheapest sort of food you will find here. Hell, it's cheaper to buy a can of diced peaches drenched in "light syrup" than it is to buy a normal damned peach.

I don't eat candy bars, so I'm not really sure what a Mars bar is. To take a wild guess though, I'm going to assume it costs $.99. Maybe $1.50 at most.

Fruit and vegetables can be stupidly expensive here too though. Surprisingly Fresh n Easy used to have cheap fruit, but they decided to raise the price because they could - now they are just as expensive as Ralph's* in most regards. They don't even halve the prices of their expiring foods anymore, which really sucks because I relied on that shit. The only thing worth buying there now is pasta (whole wheat package for $.99) and sauce (average $1.99-$2.50).



(* I use Ralph's as the standard price gauge point because they tend to cater their image and prices to the "middle class")

Shit food dirt cheap. Good food priced out of reach. Brought to you by Government Intervention.
 
Sadly in the US, junk food is cheaper than eating healthy if you're buying everything.

How sad, that explains a lot.

Here a ~60 gram Mars or Snickers bar is about $2, for that price you can buy a kilo of 'in season fruit', right now a kilo of apples is that price.

I guess soda can be cheaper than milk, has been a while since I bought soda but if I buy everything from a supermarket and prepare food at home it's cheaper per meal than fast food - for sure!

I call bullshit you cunt. I get whole gallons for less than $3 each.

Val, you are way more north than I am, it probably is cheaper in your area.


I can just picture meme comics ending with sunglasses on the character and the line "deal with it." Make it happen.

I think it's safe to say I don't know of a single American who uses it in a positive manner.

"You've got a beautiful cunt" just sounds... wrong. Frankly I don't think their is a flattering word out there for vagina, which really sucks, because it is indeed an awesome thing.

I worded that wrongly, didn't I? What I meant to say was, "how many Californians/Americans actually use it at all?"
