I love Aldi, but why does every location in my city seem to have such a lackluster selection of frozen veggies in comparison to other grocery stores??? It's been this way for years.
I just want to have the option to buy the big bags of broccoli/stir fry veggies/ect. that have enough for more than one meal, not the little steamable ones that seem to be more expensive and probably waste more plastic.
TIL that merely mentioning the struggles and limitations that disabled people face—as a disabled person—within a seemingly cordial discussion about peoples' access and ability to cook healthy meals means I'm literally ATTACKING the point of the person I'm replying to.
The fact that I had several points (in a single comment, mind you) does not mean that they keep changing. I suggest you revisit what moving goalposts actually means.
It's been my experience that it takes less time and money to make a healthy meal at home. I don't know why that's a problem to you.
That's been my experience, too. Like I've already said, I frequently cook cheap, healthy meals at home. I rarely eat fast food.
But my original points aren't centered around my—or your—personal experience; we're not the only two people who exist. Everyone has varying degrees of resources and ability.
Gee, straw man, you somehow wrote an entire paragraph while ignoring literally all of my points 👍
It takes much more effort to make a healthy well-rounded meal than just scrambling up "a few eggs". I'm happy you have enough time, energy, and physical ability to spend an hour making dinner, but a lot of people don't.
Some have multiple jobs, kids, disabilities, ect. Others live in food deserts where it's impossible—or at least very difficult—to find cheap, healthy food. Not to mention the people who were never taught how to cook, and would have to spend even more time, energy, (and very possibly wasted food) on learning how.
This is coming from someone who can and does cook cheap, healthy meals all of the time.
...why? The term AAVE has been widely used for a while, including by Black Americans.
And Rust???
Your anecdotal evidence says a lot more about the kind of people you surround yourself with than anything else. 60% of people in the US are still living paycheck to paycheck; many don't have the time or the money for even the cheaper entry fees, especially when you consider having to buy/rent clubs.
Plus... why would an organization like the NGF downplay the number of golfers when their goal is literally to research and promote golfing?
its most peoples thing they do to fuck off from lifes bullshit.
No... not most.
According to the National Golf Foundation, 41.1 million Americans played golf – BOTH on-course and off-course – in 2022.
This record-setting total includes 25.6 million people who played on a golf course and another 15.5 million who participated exclusively in off-course golf activities at places like driving ranges, indoor golf simulators, or golf entertainment venues like Topgolf and Drive Shack.
So only about 8%... or 12%, if you include those who participate in "off-course golf activities" alone.
PS2... even though, during its last days, I had to stack half a set of encyclopedias on top to get it to run a game 😭
Honestly, I'd respond positively. Small talk is exhausting
