This is halfway to gravy and it takes start to finish under 20 minutes to mix and bake biscuits so just make biscuits and gravy

Out here, everything hurts


I've been trying hard to gain weight while working out on a very strict budget and pretty much switched to full vegetarianism over the last 6 or so months out of necessity. The old easy budget workout mainstays of chicken breasts/fish just ain't happenin anymore. Had to throw my meal plan out the window because there's no way I can afford that much chicken or fish.

Tofu, dry beans, oats, cottage cheese and rice remain pretty much the same price. Lots of peanut butter. All these things in large, miserable quantities.

Those are the kind of hot takes we can expect in this thread from Ella and her culty brain-worms ilk.

So now people are telling them how stupid they are because guess what, the whole world is experiencing these issues, but you literally have idiots in this thread convinced The United States broke the entire world's economy.

You have to try really hard to be as stupid as OP and others in this thread.

because global supply chains have been destroyed. government policies actively harming petroleum production preventing oil companies from investing because they have no future to invest in. cancelling pipelines left and right leading to the current insane energy prices.

all stages in the grocery supply chain jacking up the prices with the excuse of 'inflation' well beyond actual need to do so because what are you going to do about it?

there's a bunch of reasons, actually.

That may literally be the case, yeah.

The argument is low internet rates for banks and corporations plus massive stimulus in the US lead to a huge excess of demand. And when the supply chains are hosed from the pandemic, goods are coming to the US and not elsewhere causing global inflation spread.

Are you sure you're not confusing the checkout with gettting mugged? Or are you really buying over priced bullshit? It's like 3 something for eggs and bread. I'm very tempted to go get some just to show the receipt. Also, breakfast would be good. I could got for eggs in baskets. Also I need to go get a beer so might do this. Really tho are you getting like fancy stuff or are the prices at your shop really out of control? I can't imagine 5.50 being a decent price for bread or eggs and the combo just seems insane.


Ok I get it now. You bought the wrong poo poo. I'll post my receipt when I get back home.
