Let people eat what they want.

Pro tip: if you post your grocery haul on this sub with a bag of chips, someone is going to come for you over it.

Does anyone else barf at the thought of eating the same few things nonstop? Maybe it’s a neuro diverse brain thing or maybe not.

Right? Like I can eat some leftovers every now and again but the people that suggest eating chicken and rice only for every meal are their own breed.

Some people don’t have a choice, when I was unemployed for a few weeks it was literally all I could afford

I wish i had the luxury of variety. I just grew to like eating pretty much the same thing everyday. What makes it worth it is my $100 monthly food bill.

But we’re in a poverty finance sub. It’s hard for me to watch people buy this stuff, when they are already struggling. Their money can go a loth further, and they can also eat better.

Then don't look! Seriously! Download RES for Reddit for your preferred browser, and turn on the setting that when you downvote, hides the content from your view. BAM! You can use that to restrain yourself from seeing content that offends your personal sensibilities and get on with your life!

That's their business, not yours.

Isn’t the point of poverty finance to try to get tips for being better with your finances while impoverished? I understand he could have been less judgmental about junk food generally, but giving some tips on how to save money seems like the point of the sub.
