I heard a report on NPR that food inflation was stable because lettuce prices have plummeted.

:/

[–] howrar@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

So, is this Trump technically fulfilling his campaign promise of lowering egg prices?

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 days ago

Can't complain about egg prices if you can't buy eggs.

[–] 87Six@lemmy.zip 8 points 2 days ago

First get your population sick with food made for cockroaches, then charge them thousands to heal themselves.

A perfect system, really.

I'm sorry, what the fuck happened to garlic powder???

[–] ikidd@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It makes vampires nervous, so the Republicans won't have any of it.

Didn't US voters choose Trump allegedly because of the egg prices?

Well, I guess they still got all the racism.

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

They had the benefit of the doubt in 2016.

In 2024 his voters were just racists and nothing more. "NPC" was Republican projection too.

[–] x0x7@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Just cook your eggs. Chicken also has salmonella. We cook it.

[–] pupbiru@aussie.zone 1 points 1 day ago

just boil your water!

[–] Tikiporch@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Can I just get a list of safe foods?

[–] heartSagan5@lemmy.zip 1 points 20 hours ago

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 1 points 1 day ago

Diet soda, and your lucky to have even that peasant.

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 62 points 3 days ago (4 children)

And jalapeños as of yesterday. Taylor Farms again.

[–] nullspace@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago (2 children)

It's a conspiracy by Big Mayo to keep flavor out of food, I tell ya! They'll come for the sriracha next!

[–] kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 days ago

Siracha already dead since it's not the same anymore

Is America great again yet?

[–] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

They believe they are killing the weak, leaving young fit workers.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 30 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Elect Rapepublicans, get a sicker, poorer, and globally hated America.

[–] DarkSpectrum@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Hate is a strong word, but in this case, not strong enough. Despise, loathe, lament.. Idk so many options

Wait what happened with garlic powder? This shit keeps happening so fast I can't keep up...

[–] velma@sh.itjust.works 23 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It's a Canadian recall. Not sure why it's being attributed to RFK Jr.

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 20 points 2 days ago (1 children)

At this point, fuck it. Why not?

[–] velma@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 days ago

I can’t argue with that logic haha

Lots of American food is actually banned in the rest of the world, especially the EU.

Good thing the US has a great healthcare system.

[–] skisnow@lemmy.ca 28 points 3 days ago (15 children)

I saw a thread recently with Americans discussing who washes their chicken in the sink before cooking it, which is a concept I'd literally never even heard of in Europe.

[–] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 30 points 3 days ago (12 children)

That's not a thing most Americans do, just an fyi.

Eggs and groceries were a symbol for the election of Trump

Now groceries are expensive and eggs are dangerous to eat

I heard about jalapenos, but not about garlic powder. Sure wish we had a government that wasn't full of total pieces of shit.

[–] assembly@lemmy.world 29 points 3 days ago (4 children)

I heard about the Jalapeño peppers but now garlic powder too???

We can’t eat eggs, lettuce, and garlic powder

Don’t forget salsa, guacamole, and jalapeños.

What's up with the garlic powder? Didn't know you could screw that up to be honest.

The more news about RFK Jr. I see, the more convinced I am that the brain worm is not only alive and well but possibly in control of what this guy does. I know it sounds stupid, but if brain parasites could hold public office, it would look like this.
