        Are you surviving off of peanut butter sandwiches? Or have you gotten DoorDash™ recently?

            He mentioned quantity of food, I mentioned quality.

            You don’t have to eat less if you’re eating food that is overpriced or using scam services like doordash. Just buy more-affordable food and cook your own meals.

            But some people think they’re “too good” for that and try to conflate needs with wants. I assume you’re one of them but won’t admit it.

          The country I live in at least pretends to respect worker right so no DoorDash. And if I wanted to eat cheap I wouldn’t go for peanut butter sandwiches. But rather like lentils, rice, beans, potatoes. Which, you know what? I do.
