    Even disregarding this being a horrible choice for your child's nutrition that's a pretty bad deal, you could get much more food by buying cheap brands in the supermarket.

    This guy is amazingly out of touch, normally conservative EU politicians have the sense to refrain from such statements even if probably most of them believe the same.

      lol, in my experience French conservative politicians are equally out of touch. They're bourgeois fucks, they have no idea what a bus ticket costs. See this compilation from a few years ago

      They live on another plane of existence, they can't do anything themselves so it's not surprising they don't know the price of things

        'It's one banana, Michael. What could it cost, $10?'

        Or even better:

        C.J.: It's not that I wanna don a shroud, I just think the Polly-Anna act's not wearing well. Sir, I'm worried that at some point avoidance starts to look like maybe we just haven't noticed. We run the risk of appearing out of touch, like one of those President's who doesn't know the price of milk. Sir, do you know the price of milk?
        BARTLET: Not precisely.
        C.J.: Neither do I. Do any of us?
