is woefully out of touch
This is not out of touch, this is laughing directly in your face. Why are you still pretending they don't know what they're doing ? He's buying the porterhouse, with your money.

“Buy the really cheap cuts so I can buy the good stuff you can’t afford”.
Tbf he seems like the kind of dude who prefers organ meat. Ideally off of roadkill
Organ meat tastes offal.
According to ChatGPT Health he likes his steaks lubed with yogurt and shoved up his rectum.
Porterhouse? Bitch, Im over here unable to buy fucking ground 80/20 chuck because it's doubled in price. I'm stretching chicken breast to last 2 meals! I'm flat out eating less trying to stretch our food budget.
I don't know your situation, your budget, or your ability. But on the off chance this is news: dry beans go a lot farther than chicken, per dollar, and also fill you up.I think lentils go even farther.
I hate being hungry. So I've found cheaper-by-volume options for things.
You're not wrong but sometimes I crave something more than rice and beans.
Whole chickens are much cheaper per pound than any individual parts. Then you get to make bone broth once you finish the meat.
Lentils? /s
I was being a bit dramatic on the post. I'm still able to buy meat proteins but I just budget it out better now. I don't get to buy beef nearly as much as I used to, fish too. My main meats are now chicken and pork since they are most cost effective. I am eating less, but tbh, it's better portion control anyway.
Unfortunately I hate beans, always have, so I bulk out mostly with rice and grains. Appreciate the shout out though, many more worse off than I am who might need the info.
Why not cake
Why don't the poors just eat sirloin instead of caviar?

From my shopping trip today:
- Ground Beef = $6.99/lb
- Whole Chicken = $4.99/lb
- Chicken Breasts = $4.99/lb
- Ground Pork = $2.99/lb
- 0.5 gal Milk (Organic) = $6.99 (On sale for $5.99)
- 1 loaf store brand bread = $3.50
- 32oz tub of Folgers Coffee = $17.99
This is double (in the case of the bread, more than triple) what they were pre-covid. Junior is a damned moron. I can't get out of the grocery store anymore for less than $75 for the week, and that assumes I already have most of what's needed for this weeks meal plan. More often it's $150-$200 for the week.
I take that back, I could reduce the costs if I was willing to have nothing but rice, beans and gravy. Thankfully, we're not that poor.

Holy jesus. I can't fill a single bag of groceries for less than $75, let alone a whole shop.
Most of our shopping trip this week was low cost items like pasta, rice and canned goods which aren't quite so expensive. The fact we are a two person household also helps keep the overall trip costs down.
I build our grocery list as we notice we need something throughout the week, and then go through it again adding and removing items as I'm planning our meals for the week with our local grocery store's sales flyer guiding what we are having for the week. While shopping, I check the prices on everything in case there is a surprise sale on something we will definitely need. Doing this helped reduce our grocery trips to something manageable and reduce the amount of items that we have to throw out. And I never go to the grocery store hungry because if I do, I won't stick to the list.
If rather eat the rich.
Sure, Junior, let me just omit the porterhouse from the shopping list and see how it affects the monthly budget. Huh, it's the same as before, because we already don't eat that, you fucking pancake.
Yeah you peasants, the good cuts are for the wealthy. You eat the scraps
With fava beans, and a nice Chianti...
Well, at least he didn't suggest road kill like he tended to do, and keep it in his friend's fridge.
Surprised he didn't recommend some bear they found in the park.
I hope this guy accidentally sits on his shriveled drooping nuts every fucking day, and that it hurts every time and he’s really self conscious about it.
if you can't afford groceries just go out and buy groceries.
careful. not too much just liver. high purines, gouty.
Let them eat foie gras!
Liver with Ivermectin cream sauce - delicious and prevents Covid.
Chicken hearts are good but I don't want to try to convince anyone that.
Shhhh! Someone will hear!
Nothing’s wrong with eating liver.
Except it's high in cholesterol even when compared to other red meat. It is delicious though.
Is he offering his liver? No one would want that tainted meat so let’s food waste it.
I only buy chicken when I'm in the states be cause beef of any kind is too expensive.
WORMS LOVE LIVER. EAT MOAR LIVER!
