    Man, it’s almost like when your system believes food is a human right, you really try to feed as many people as possible. Back in the day, the USSR had a higher caloric intake and better nutrient distribution than the U.S. too.

        At least they eat meat. I cant afford it anymore, I dont have that much money. In the meantime some petite-bourgeois and prolterian aristocrat fuckers can eat what they want :(

          Same here. American, not going hungry overall but can no longer afford meat. I just looked at prices for it even at a discount market and I was stunned.

          But I get plenty of complete and varied protein, even cooking vegetarian. The loss of occasional meat just means I'll face some cravings and have to stay creative with fats and spices.
