I suspect cake would not be allowed under this proposal, though some granola bar-type thing might be?
@Bix sounds like someone's idea of how to get people to cook their own meals, and buy more wholesome food. enforcement of more economic and health awareness.
i don't get the canned meat and fish though. that doesn't fit. sounds like someone's $$$ in that provision.
no freedom of consumption with assistance.
they're against health mandates, eh? typical hypocrisy.
@holon42 but, even canned beans are healthy
@Bix yeah, it's a broadsword where a chef's knife is needed. some kind of fundamentalist basic life skills notion, perhaps. we used to do stuff like that in high school home economics class.
@holon42 @Bix
I'm sure that's the general notion ~ I presume the canned meat versus fresh is the idea that it's shelf-stable so lasts longer, but it's also more likely to have added salt (so less healthy), and ignores that people often freeze fresh meat.
1:1 swaps of whole wheat for other versions of things is relatively innocuous. But other elements ignore that time is often ALSO a resource people are short of.
It's certainly over-broad, and self-defeating on some fronts.
@CLManussier you can't accuse them of clear thinking. pretty typical.
@Bix @InUnfunky their base will blame Joe Biden when they're screaming about it in the checkout line.
@Bix lol being racist and stupid to own the libs. Wait until grocers, farmers, and livestock producers see this shit…
“Look, school shootings are down, and if we don’t thin the herd, we’ll end up with a bunch of thinking people running around eventually voting against us, and we just can’t have that! Now I need ideas, people!!”
“I have an idea.”
“Well let’s hear it!”
“It’s gonna take a lot longer, but we could just malnourish them. You know, take away decent food.”
“…It’s slow, but I kinda like it! It’s subtle! We’ll go with it for now. Keep the ideas coming!”
I. Hate. Republicans.
Y'all recall the bumper stickers that read "If you think education is expensive, TRY IGNORANCE"?
It's purposeful.
@Bix @InUnfunky
Should the bill just say, "Let them eat cake"?
