Why is the price of food inversely proportional to it's calorie content? Just now I popped to Tesco to look for a low calorie snack. All I could find under 300 calories was a salad bowl and some sandwich chicken pieces. Along with a mango this set me back 6.35 GBP. On the way out I noticed that a pack of 5 giant cookies, easily 1000 calories in that pack was 1.60 GBP. I left the store feeling cucked. Doesn't even taste as good.

Basic marketing and economics that no one is likely to adequately explain to you here.

Some products are more heavily subsidized than others.

Milk is an example of an artificially cheap product. Many governments heavily subsidize dairy farmers, which is why milk is often cheaper than alternatives like soy milk or hemp milk.
>>
Buy the cookies. Eat as many calories as you need. Save the rest for another day. It's that simple.

Ahh I get cucked by this too. I don't actually drink soya for any weight loss reasons, I'm simply allergic to milk and yeah I pay double. I did try switching to almond once because that's half the calories of even soya and it cost more! A litre of milk is idk around 70p, litre of soya about 1.50 GBP and almond is 1.80 GBP

Sugar is addicting, I have trouble sticking to my diet if I try eating small amounts of junk. Also 1 cookie isn't very filling.
>>34990046
Whatever the reason I'm tired of hearing "healthy food is cheaper"
>>
>>34990011
Depends on where you live, vegetables and shit are expensive here, but I can go up to the cheap ass mexican market and get as much meat as I want for practically nothing and I hear normies online all the time talking about how expensive meat is

>out-of-town market bulk buying
Ain't nobody got time for that shit and that meat is propably cheap for a reason. I go to a reputable market since buying cheap chicken that smelled of bleach and healthy choices such as fish or lean pork is expensive as fuck
The back of the lorry fruit guy kept my weekly fruit shop super low for ages but he disappeared so now I'm getting assfucked by supermarket fruit prices, 4.50 GBP for fucking grapes, gay shit like that. I paid the lorry dude a pound for the same thing

when people say that they mean large volume, low calorie produce purchased in grocery stores.
again, too lazy to get into it but the marketing and economics inform why that doesn't apply to prepared foods in Britbong 7-11.

It's to keep poor people slow, sluggish, and less likely to question things.

food is getting safer again but the war continues they're phasing out hormone and subsidy controls to accomplish quoted aims in favor of fluorinating bottled water (false flag "lead pipe" water source scandals finishing conversion to non-transparent water sourcing,) chemtrails and social media psyops

Low calorie food is a meme
Just eat smaller portions
>>
>>34990527
Hmm. I just got off the phone to my mum, she says a good way to get cheap fish and vegetables is frozen so I'm gonna try that.
>>34990688
It's not a meme, keeps you filled and not hungry. I did try eating small amounts of whatever, it was a disaster, wasted a year having not lost any weight. My healthy diet does work, it's just bankrupting me.
