What is it like living in a country where food is an actual expense?

>> No.14804326

I imagine those countries eat to live, I definitely live to eat.
Food in the US is so plentiful and cheap, you can go to food drives without any shame and they'll give you boxes of assorted stuff that would have otherwise been thrown away, you literally can't starve even if you're destitute.

America overall is super cheap to live in. I pay like 250$ a month in rent, gas is 2.07$ a gallon. I spend more than I probably ought to on food and even then it's like maybe 150-200$ a month.

Okay, and that is supposed to mean something why? They could be off 2 orders of magnitude and still be nearly half the mortality rate of the USA.
