    I can't buy an can of corn for less than $2, but I can get a pound of ground chuck for $4.

    The Khmer Rouge shit is the nightmarishly operated factory farms which couldn't exist without endless government cash.

    These farms might not be able to exist even with government money, given the skyrocketing cost of potable water. But you'll still have assholes like this screaming "Don't make me eat the bugs!" and blaming Big Spinach in another five years.

        Actually a thing. The science behind spinach iron absorption is flawed and pop-eye plus ad campaigns covered this up. Yes it has tons of iron. No you’re not absorbing a meaningful amount.

        Other plants are better for that. It is tasty though.
