My dad sent really cute easter baskets to my two kids, but receipt was on. Made me cry and just feel bad on multiple occasions. I know gift baskets are overpriced by nature, but it was expensive for what it was. I think he realized later too and regretted it because he was kind of salty about it later. :-(

>Why was salt so valuable?

>Prior to industrialization, it was extremely expensive and labor-intensive to harvest the mass quantities of salt necessary for food preservation and seasoning. This made salt an extremely valuable commodity. Entire economies were based on salt production and trade.

>In the Iron Age, the British evaporated salt by boiling seawater or brine from salt springs in small clay pots over open fires. Roman salt-making entailed boiling the seawater in large lead-lined pans. Salt was used as currency in ancient Rome, and the roots of the words "soldier" and "salary" can be traced to Latin words related to giving or receiving salt. During the Middle Ages, salt was transported along roads built especially for that purpose. One of the most famous of these roads is the Old Salt Route in Northern Germany, which ran from the salt mines to shipping ports.

to be fair, there are some decent bakeries out there that will do a nice quality cake delivered.

It just wont be anywhere near as cheap as a mass produced grocery store cake.

Maybe dad got it for free and thought you two would like it? Either way, perhaps remind him that his son would die if he ate it, and that you aren't into sweets and then give the cake to the homeless or a food shelter.

This is the same kind of boomer retardation that led to $24 trillion of federal debt, somalis occupying Maine/Minnesota, the street drug epidemic, the Rx drug epidemic, and the permanent welfare class. That generation in particular has no concept of unintended negative consequences. Even if it's plainly laid out in front of them, their dumb brains just don't process it. I think it's genetic, and boomers are particularly prone because people who weren't fit to fight in WW2 survived in far greater numbers than they should have as a result of being assigned to menial labor tasks.

The worst generation, right down to genetics.

He didn't say it was rare, retard, he said it was valuable. Diamonds are made of carbon, which is one of the most common elements and an industrial waste product, but they're still valuable.
