I get all groceries, fast food, drinks, snacks, etc. are becoming more expensive across the board but I'm 100% with you. It's like people bitching about the price of cigarettes. If the crap that's bad for you is becoming too expensive maybe it's a win-win and time to quit while saving money.
First they came for cigarettes and I did not speak out
Cigarette smokers know they're bad. It's an addiction.
There is some denial there. Especially about second hand smoke.
Sounds EXTREMELY wasteful tbh. Should probably start being much more selective..
I used to eat 2-4 full bags of chips every week, but kow that they're over 5 dollars a pop I've cut them out completely.
I'm absolutely certain the markup on these chips is almost the full price. They can't cost more than a few cents to make at scale.
