My local CVS has had nothing in the freezer for like 2 months now. Not that they ever had anything good in there it was like hot pockets and ice cream and garbage, but it's just weird to walk by it and see absolutely nothing.

Ranter posted:You don't have to drench lobster in butter. Fresh caught, cooked just before eating lobster is very expensive unless you live in the right coastal areas, and it's nothing like what 99% of the working class has eaten elsewhere. we visited family in Maine growing up a lot and honestly I think lobster is overrated by a lot. I think lobster rolls are actually the best way to serve it, but I’ve always found it kinda meh local scallops and oysters were always way better imo

And maybe Australian lobster (crayfish) is very different, but I'll never forget the sweetness from eating a cray cooked on the pier after it came off a boat in Tasmania.

no but seriously though agricultural subsidy by the western governments (Europe and the US ) they care about that more than eliminating tariffs and expanding free trade. they won’t budge on it to the point of having stalled out several WTO rounds over it and thus ending the possibility of progress on further rounds.

They would lobby the poo poo out of congress if they thought something would affect that number. Wal-Mart also saves a ton in wages by paying so poorly that their employees still qualify for EBT even though they're working a paying job.
