Uhhhh you buy the exact same thing every week? Sounds fucking horrifying lol. Does this person not even know about seasonal foods? Like, I get it things are definitely getting worse in hell world but uh...
glad you edited. I was about to tell you you forgot the 12 gallons of milk
jokes aside, let's be careful not to shame fellow proles over their grocery habits, unless it's as ridiculous as 12 gallons of milk. not everyone can buy fresh stuff, not everyone likes it, and not everyone can even necessarily cook. pasta, canned soup... these things are good, cheap options for many people.
For sure, even me, a labor aristocrat *enlightened food enjoyer * buys some of these things, and I've heard about american food deserts, but I do want to poke fun at middle american (and westerners in general, northern europe or australia isn't much better) middle class families with access to good food that still choose to eat overly sweet, bland and processed, day in, day out.
I wonder how much of Western food preferences have been distorted by capitalism. There was a concerted marketing push after WWII to get people go eat more processed food and I have to assume there was a big profit motive there.
I have to wonder if the greatest death toll from car culture is making us even more reliant on processed slop. I can't realistically go to the market more than once a week, and people in food deserts or exurban areas are even worse off. Can't be eating fresh greens and quality ingredients all week because those only last a couple days on the shelves. Canned everything and processed enriched bullshit fills the place and we're all the sicker and poorer instead.
A lot of autistic people will get into the habit of eating the same foods over and over, to the point where if they can’t have those foods they will just not eat. My brother ended up in the hospital for dehydration once because the store was out of his preferred water flavor packets. Habits like this aren’t hellish to everyone. There are people who enjoy the very specific experience even when they’ve had it a lot

Oh the US diet for sure. That’s why it’s so unhealthy.
I don’t remember doing anything to you that would warrant dragging me in public like this
Mans milk sounds wrong on so many levels

Sometimes I go for long periods eating the same food. Probably need more diverse tastes

If you've got a budget and can mix up the ingredients this makes a lot of sense - also the PMC have more time to cook nowadays.
