That explains all the homeless flooding the supermarkets for Nutella.

Every store is sold out of Nutella on social payday.

A cheap tasty, sweet snack loaded with calories... the audacity of those filthy poors trying to add a little joy to their lives.

Thanks obama

Do you really think that people don't know this shit isn't good for you?

Ever consider the possibility that groceries are expensive as f*** for a lot of people, and they cant afford to feed their family organic tomatos, free range chicken and Italian olive oil?

They buy rice, pasta and ground beef when they have time to cook and giant tiger lasagna or kraft dinner and hot dogs when they don't.

Easy to say eat healthy nutritious food when you have a job you love that doesnt leave you exhausted and burnt at the end of the day and you have the money to afford it. You can buy a massive processed lasagna for 12 bucks on sale, it costs at least 40 to make it from scratch and takes am hour or 2 to prepare before you throw it in the oven.

Nutrition is more and more a luxury for those who can afford it. If you've got 5 bucks cause rent is due, youre not buying a f***ing avacodo or two amd apreading it on freshly baked rye, youre buying a bag of ruffles to pack in as many calories as you can. Actually you're probably grabbing dollarama brand sour cream and onion, cause you can get a giant bag for a twonie.

Pretentious bullshit right here. Get off the golf course and go talk to a homeless person, or someone on disability living in a bed bug infested rooming house that costs all but 100 bucks of their cheque so they have no choice but to eat at drop ins and shelters. Get their 2 cents on the matter.

Sugar in ketchup... f*** off with that shit.

Speaking of people on disability, I wonder what happens when/if a certain orange headed guy & his cronies take the Senate & HoR?

There is a lot to unpack in this rant.

I think everyone knows its not good for them, they just don't know to what extent it is bad for them on a molecular level. Ingredients in food are not class exclusive.

You're skipping a huge portion of food that sits right in the middle of these two extremes. Yes, organic food is the most nutritious and is what the entire food industry should be based on but to say in general eating healthy is out of most peoples price range is a huge over statement. Organic potatoes are healthier than regular potatoes but regular potatoes are way healthier that McCain french fries. For $4-5 you can buy a bad of regular potatoes and get 2-3x the amount out of it than you would a bag of processed potatoes. It's not as convenient to wash, chop, and season 3-4 potatoes than to just open a bag but its healthier and cheaper to spend that extra time.

Everyone is in a time crunch and tired when they get home from work. This isn't exclusive to just poor people, It has more to do with people just not knowing how to cook. Having Kraft dinner and hotdogs was a delicacy as a kid but I didn't have it more than once or twice a month. The key is people learning how to stretch their money and get the biggest bang for their buck. The up front cost is more but over the duration of the ingredient the cost is 3-4 times cheaper.

Easy to say eat healthy nutritious food when you have a job you love that doesnt leave you exhausted and burnt at the end of the day and you have the money to afford it. You can buy a massive processed lasagna for 12 bucks on sale, it costs at least 40 to make it from scratch and takes am hour or 2 to prepare before you throw it in the oven.

Jobs you love leave you exhausted at the end of the day too. No one I know plans to make Lasagna from scratch on a Tuesday night after work, even rich people ain't got time for that. Lasagna does not cost 40 dollars to make. It does cost more than 12 though. Now' if you manage to buy the ingredients for Lasagna when the go on sale you could get very close to that 12 dollar range. I mean you are waiting for the lasagna to go on sale, right? You can prepare an average lasagna in 30 minutes, cook for 50 minutes, and let rest for 20. This is a Saturday night meal when you have time.

Nutrition is more and more a luxury for those who can afford it. If you've got 5 bucks cause rent is due, youre not buying a f***ing avacodo or two amd apreading it on freshly baked rye, youre buying a bag of ruffles to pack in as many calories as you can. Actually you're probably grabbing dollarama brand sour cream and onion, cause you can get a giant bag for a twonie.

Again, you are skipping that huge middle area. If your plan is to pack in calories with $5 why not buy a bag of potatoes for instead of A bag of chips that leaves you with only $3?

A family vs someone on disability vs someone who is homeless are very wide gaps in society. The reason health care is out of control is because people are unhealthy. Sugar and hidden sugars are a massive influence on this equation. Seed oils are also very bad for you. Its a decision at the end of the day on what you decide to eat and the amount of time you are willing to sacrifice in order to achieve the best balance of your dietary needs.

There is nothing pretentious about making wise decisions about the food you eat and feed to your family.

Lucky you guys. We had a snow storm here in the Yukon today. 10-15 cm's of snow.
You guys are going to start getting huge dumps of early snow and then it is going to get much warmer after a while/years.

It sounds like sea ice isn't forming anymore in the far north.

The beginning of the end. Boy am I glad I never ended up having kids!

Ya it's kind of already been like that. Huge dumps of snow, but unusually warm causing a wet snowpocalypse mess a lot of the time. The City had to ramp up their snow clearing equipment and contractors a lot the last couple years.

It's only going to get worse, but I try not to dwell on my decision to have a kid as it really is agonizing to think about the suffering I've potentially opened up to him. Personally, I don't give one shit if humanity lives on or not, but of course I think about him and the uncertain future.

Don't worry, your grand kids will make you forget all about the doom and gloom you thought was going to happen. Back in the day when things got too hot people moved. When things got too cold they moved. Thinking you can adjust the earth's thermostat is hilarious. We are still coming out of the ice age.

Not sure I agree, but no matter what, I'm done dreading the unknown or pretending like I have some stake in the continuance of humanity beyond what happens with my own kin.
