How do we fix it, Jow Forums?
Cameron Bell
Juan Price
>fruit costs more than potatoes
what is there to fix? this fact held true for centuries, it's not like the price of fruit vs the price of potatoes is some startling new development
Parker Garcia
Tarriffa on potatoes
Aiden Jones
Know your place amerifat
Jaxson Rodriguez
This is fucking retarded. Go post this on Jow Forums and see how long it takes to get shredded apart. Eating healthy is cheaper than gorging yourself on garbage. I started eating healthy and I've saved a shit load of money by doing so.
If you're too mentally retarded to cut up fruit on your own then you deserve to pay 6 dollars for it.
Brandon Sanders
>potatoes, easy as fuck to grow and process
>fruits, difficulty to grow and process
gee
Evan Nelson
too much of our fruits comes from the Guatemalan piss fields
Brayden Gomez
Buy the fruit and chop it up yourself. Far cheaper.
Adrian Lopez
>paying a nigger to cut up your fruit and put it in a cup
You could get a pound of cherries, one kiwi, and a an entire melon for the price of your little faggot fruity cup you fucking retard. Also, you can get an entire chicken for the price of two boneless/skinless chicken breasts.
Colton Jackson
Or you could buy a couple melons and a bag of apples and make like 10 pots for the same price.
Jackson Reyes
>americans
>making food themselves
thats what the niggers and mexicans are for, remember? doing the "jobs" americans don't want to
Lincoln Myers
Meanwhile whole bananas are 77 cents per lb here (77 leaf cents. So that's like 50 cents US, meaning you could probably get 3 whole bananas for the same price as the french fries in the picture)
You're fat because you eat too much fatty
stop trying to blame "the industry"
David Sullivan
Potatoes have complete amino acids. It is actually a much healthier food than people give it credit.
Meat > carbs > sugar
Brandon Martin
Don't be a lazy fuck and slice the fruit yourself, then you save 75%.
Sebastian Torres
If you dont want to pay 5.99, buy the fruit uncut and skip the upcharge ya doofus
Aaron Wilson
Just throw all the potatoes into the ocean annd set fire to you’re local fast food chains.
Parker Brooks
stop eating fruit. it's just natures candy and it's always been expensive. actual healthy food is dirt cheap. you could've prepared those potatoes differently for example
that or eat whatever you want, train like an animal 7 days a week and permabulk. as a grown man you have that option
Luke Wood
Technically potatoes do not make you fat. Otherwise Russians would be blimps.
Noah Sanders
Yeah it's like .79 for a bunch of bananas.
Julian Evans
>1 potato cooked in oil vs a watermelon a melon a pineapple chopped into cubes and put into a plastic cup because youre too lazy to go to the store and buy a whole watermelon for $3 that can last a week.
Lucas White
Don’t be a nigger
Charles Clark
Ah, the communist method of food production.
William Bell
Mien leaf
Lucas Rogers
>Froot helfy becuz it cowordful
We don’t.
If slaves want to eat slave food let them.
Dylan Ramirez
You can't fix something like this. The rate of production is not fast enough compared to potatoes.
Kevin Rodriguez
>Implying fattening carb rich fruit is healthy
Adrian Turner
The only three fruits you should ever consume are
>Grapefruit
>Bananas
>Blueberries
all of which are dirt cheap.
Nathaniel Wilson
Wow potatoes cost more than 5 different fruits?
Easton Roberts
Matthew Hernandez
Here is the real problem
Lucas Sullivan
>0,1$
Julian Turner
One is one plant that can borderline grow anywhere. Super easy to maintain and grow. No refrigeration required until after they have been cut into fries and sent out.
The other is an assortment of like 4 different fruits which all need to be kept fresh and converge and meet at one factory to be cut and packaged together and then shipped out. This entire time the fruits pretty much need to be kept cool unless it has a thick skin like cantalope.
Oh all these fruits are pretty much not native to north America and the majority of the crop is grown in some south American country.
Supply and demand OP.
Parker Anderson
The real pro-tip is buy the fries and only eat half of them.
Buy the mcdonalds burgers and throw out all the buns and smash the patties together
Jayden Ortiz
Enjoy your scurvy faggot.
Nicholas Ramirez
Post in-store prices.
Landon Brown
>fruit
>healthy
>potatoes
>unhealthy
Luis Watson
How frail, skinny and short you are that a cup of fruit is fattening to you?
Samuel Perry
See
Caleb Lee
this is retarded as well.
If you don't get all your required micronutrients you will be hungry.
Nothing at McDonalds has any micronutrients to speak of.
Owen Jenkins
$22? Come home to Wisconsin, white man. $10 24 racks
Jose Russell
$2.14
>this kills the fat fuck and faggot chow
Levi Ortiz
Even when they're fried in palm oil?
Daniel Ross
>mcdonald’s fries are made from potatoes
Leo Reed
That's only half of it. The other half is that people eat way more than they need which saves them an immense amount of money.
>muh kids eat so much
Then dont let them eat chips and candy all day. Active teens need a shit ton of protein and fats, but protein powder and pb are cheap and go a long way.
Liam Phillips
Potatoes, when cooked right, are pretty healthy.
Easton Bailey
>potatoes
>various fruits
Shut the fuck up.
Landon Rogers
A cabbage (kraut) costs 49 cents here. In salad form this feeds a family of 5 who after that eat pork chops with rice. Total cost for a meal for 5people - 5 euros.
Caleb Evans
deepfrying them is not cooking them right though.
Alexander Robinson
>how do we fix this
Well for starters, pic related is not $6 it's closer to $2
Jaxon Nguyen
>micronutrients
Trendy new way to say vitamins and minerals, and yes they do.
Elijah Sullivan
If you understood anything about the growing, harvesting, storage and transportation needs of potatoes vs fruits you'd understand how retarded your image is.
Carter Price
Calorie count.
It’s not hard. You may not become fit from it, but your body won’t get fat either.
Julian Wood
based schizo
Nathaniel Barnes
..... leaf what are your rambling about? What in the fuck is a micro nutrient? What was I consuming before nutriants the size of a peanut? Micro nutrients is an oxymoron.
Easton Martin
My fucking nigger, that shit is so good.
Zachary Lopez
fried food tax?
Nathaniel Ross
>food system
lol
James Butler
He's posting deens
Jeremiah King
Prepared in that fashion it is not healthy. A lot of the important nutritional factors in the fruit is broken down in the canning process (it's basically slow cooked as part of the canning process) and then immersed in fruit juice (which is another way of destroying the nutritional value of fruit).
If you are feeding your children canned fruit you might as well just give them candy.
Liam Moore
Test
John Robinson
potatoes are easier to grow and last much longer.. obviously they are cheaper
Isaac Allen
Yeah this is how leftists and niggers think becuse they live on a "system" that provides for them. They dont provide for themselves.
Andrew Bennett
Not when fried in oil. However, if they are prepared bland and unflavorful, like Dutch food, they are healthy.
Blake Baker
Blocks your path
Nicholas Jenkins
A nutrient that you require less than ~100mg a day of, for example iron.
Evan Turner
Stop government subsidies.
End crony capitalism.
Protectionism is anti-free-market.
James Bell
Yeah potatoes are amazing, except when you deep fry em in a tub of fat
Adrian Jenkins
Im not arguing that point, just the price point. Better than starving or having them taken by CPS. Also give them a flintstone vitamin and yurn on Dora. Im loading another bowl and waiting for my disability check.
Liam Morgan
Potatoes are super good for you and truly a wonderfood. There is a reason poor peasants survived on that shit for ages on end. They are packed full of iron and zinc.
Brayden Lopez
fix what?
fresh fruit is expensive shit, especially out of season.
fried potatoes can be easily frozen and defrosted easily and will always be cheaper.
compare to a frozen fruit smoothie if you want to be honest.
Dylan Gutierrez
fatties too
Fatties always characterize the food industry as having some hidden agenda to make people fat and addicted to foods that are unhealthy. Meanwhile the industry is just following the money and people are fat lazy shits that want french fries so that's where the money is.
Connor Evans
>I don't like that certain words exist so I get mad
Christopher Roberts
Reminder that potatoes are extremely healthy when not fried and contain high levels of essential micro-nutrients, such as vitamin c, iron, b6 and magnesium. Other staples such as rice, bread and noodles have the nutritional profile of cardboard compared to potatoes.
Easton Flores
>die of hypertension induced heart failure
>also die a kissless virgin because fishbreath
What's the upside here?
Alexander Smith
offer free pack of bullets with every fruit salad
Ethan Hughes
Daniel Ortiz
>Fatties always characterize the food industry as having some hidden agenda to make people fat and addicted to foods that are unhealthy
to be fair, the whole world is run by jews trying to slow you down.
Adam Gutierrez
>fresh fruit is expensive
except for the really popular ones due to economy of scale. Bananas, for example are dirt cheap because they come from central america by the tanker load all year round. Pineapples are getting cheap now too for the same reason (because fatties think pineapples will make them skinny).
Joshua Hall
>immersed in fruit juice (which is another way of destroying the nutritional value of fruit).
Schizo.
Ethan Barnes
You could probably buy all three melons used to make that pitiful pot for less than the cost and you have enough for 10 pots. I have no sympathy for Starbucks drinking millennial cucks complaining they have no money
Cooper Ramirez
It's like a microaggression but good for you
Jaxon Sullivan
Red states draw more welfare than blue states, in addition to things like obesity levels.
Chase Miller
You subhuman baboon. You literal nigger.
How dare you speak, you swarthy jungle monkey. How dare you open your big lipped, rim encrusted, menthol cigarette smelling mouth?
You are human trash, Diego Tyrone LeShawn de Maradona. Universally despised, derided and mocked. Your nationality and skin tone offers no hope to the world that South America can ever prosper. Crawl back in to the Brazilian jungle you came out of, you literal orangutan.
I hope you decide to sail your grandfathers skip to the Falklands and rape some sheep, as is in the negroes nature. It would still be the whitest pussy you ever had. Give Nigel and Robert a chance for some target practice, your sole use to the world. Argentinians obsession with a few windswept islands in the Atlantic is hilarious but sad. Coincidentally its the only worthwhile contribution Argentina has made to the medical field. The MUH LAS MALVINAS sentiment in the average negro Argentinian is both an early warning sign of autism in children, and early on set Alzheimer's in adults.
Take your black hairy fingers off your keyboard, and never talk about the human species again, you mockery of our supposed shared ancestor.. No amount of olive oil and wheat flour slabbed on your face every morning will make you white. It's about as delusional of an idea as your daydreams of European heritage.
You nigger.
You make Bolivia look like a beacon of civilisation.
You are the Baltimore of South America.
Go fertilise the pampas with you and your families corpses, its the best you can hope for in life. For the first time in your life, nigger, you have a job making food for beings vastly superior to yourself. Uruguayan cattle. Coincidentally, it would be the first time an Argentinian "man" provided for a family.
Die, Diego. No one would miss you. Except for Australian Aboriginals, who now would have no one to make them look good.
Oliver Wright
Well then the leaf is wrong because I can't think of another food that contains more iron on this planet other then potatoes and McDonald's has those in spades.
Andrew Myers
>he doesn't brush after eating
I'm not even surprised. BP is usually under 110,and I've been eating 2 cans of those a day for years.
James Richardson
reminder one baked potato has more sugar than a can of coke
Ian Lewis
When you juice fruit you are basically extracting the water and the sugar from it and then discarding the pulp (which is where all minerals are). So yeah. Fruit juice isn't healthy. It's just fruit flavored sugar water.
Kayden Davis
>a single vegetable sliced by the same machine that washed it, shipped frozen, and cooked in the same oil as everything else fried that day
vs
>slices of multiple types of fruit, all with different growth requirements, shipped fresh to the same place at the same time
Jose Thompson
Who drinks diet coke in this day and age though?
Thomas Gutierrez
>a variety of exotic fruits shipped from halfway across the world costing more then a slated potato
yeah no shit
my problem is that food for poor people is often unhealthy unnecessarily. like a can of campbell soup almost looks healthy until you see they put fucking msg in it. yes thank you for burning out my braincells because i couldnt afford a soup that has the same ingredients without the garbage because it costs 3 times more. thanks a lot campbells.
the big food corporations are globalist run eugenics programs. anything cheap will have a bunch of shit in it that it doesnt need that is put there simply to kill you. it wouldnt cost more to remove that shit, this is done on purpose and it is done for evil
Brody Morris
>economic illiterate

Ian James

Parker Sanders

Based retard
Leo Reed
same people who eat a lot of vegetables and wonder why the fuck they have diabetes
Gabriel Ortiz
ok fair, but OP is mostly melons (cantaloupe, watermelon and honeydew).
i don't think that applies to them - aren't those all still seasonal and grown outdoors?
and anyway shipping fruit up from south america is kind of retarded.
Angel Lewis
Starches take longer for the body to break down. The sugar in potatoes doesn't make your blood acidic immediately like Coca-Cola does.
Jack Morgan
Also, enjoy your mercury poisoning.
Dylan Martin
eating healthy is only cheap when you're not lazy
lazy or busy people have to pay twice as much for the exact same convenience foods just because the bad shit was removed, nothing even added.
sorry im not going to spend hours a day in a kitchen stirring a pot like an italian grandmother
Wyatt Ramirez
The funny thing is, on the right, you're paying for the fruit being pre sliced and put into the little re-sealable plastic cup. You could easily get a cantaloupe, a melon and a watermelon, slice them all up and have 5 or 6 servings of that at the cost of about 5 or 6 dollars. The problem is instant gratification. People are too lazy to take the time to find out how to feed themselves and fast food joints exploit that. To get the most value, nutritionally and economically out of grocery shopping, you have to know what produce is in season, what exactly you need for a weeks worth of meals and then actually take the time to slice your fruits and prep your food. Or you could get a hot meal straight out of a window for the same price. OP's pic was made by someone who wont take responsibility for their actions. There is a problem with the food system - its the average consumer.
Nathan Lopez
I see it's skitzo hours.
