    You’re gonna find beans, soy and rice in a food desert a lot easier than eggs. The food desert I’ve lived in had at least two of the three in almost every bodega.

      Then go tell all these people that are hurt by the egg prices going up they are wrong.

        I’m just responding specifically to your argument that eggs are easier to find than beans and rice in food deserts.

      “Why don’t poor people just buy healthy food at their local bodegas?” - A statement made with incredible privilege and zero self awareness

        No I’ve literally been poor and living in a food desert and was pointing out that rice and beans are in fact usually more accessible than eggs in such a place, as the other user rested much of their argument on a belief to the contrary. Please don’t put words in my mouth, TY.
