If you buy real food, like potatoes, beans, vegetables that are in season etc., you can cook healthy meals that are cheap. But I often see people who are clearly not well off, buy expensive prefab stuff. |

They have less money to convert into time, so the rational decision is to prioritize food. Cooking takes equipment. The really poor might not even have a full kitchen. Slightly less poor people move frequently, so have fewer possessions. Cindy Hamilton |

The grocery stores now have huge frozen dinner sections, as Cindy mentioned. Many these days are actually pretty healthy and good "fast food" for people that don't have much spare time to home cook every meal. It's a decent compromise. At least healthier then BK or McD, etc. Frozen dinners got a bad rap just from the early days when only Swanson or Banquet dinners were sold. There are certain days, I come home completely exhausted. I'll take a shower and eat an easy frozen dinner vs spending an hour cooking from stupid scratch. On some of those days, I'll just skip eating altogether rather than bother. I've learned to have something easy on hand though. I'm a very big fan of "just toss it in the microwave." It can be cooking while you shower. |

The frozen food sections are worth checking out these days. Alternatively, I often cook large in order to make my own frozen dinners but only on days off when I plenty of time. I'm going to make another gallon of pea soup either this morning or tomorrow morning. I really like that stuff and good to have some in the freezer. Frozen in pint containers which is often enough for 2 meals. |

But I often see people who are clearly > not well off, buy expensive prefab stuff. For many green vegetables, I've switched to frozen...next best thing to fresh. Have you ever priced fresh veggies in a grocery store? Ridiculous prices so often. Have you tried yellow squash yet? I love it and will buy on sale for 79 cents a pound but most times it sells for like $1.79 a pound. I won't pay that. Same thing (and prices) just for iceberg lettuce. The truly poor do grow all their own vegetables, raise chickens for eggs and meat, and also hunt to suppliment the meat issue. This is only for rural people with some land. City poor don't have that option. |

What an odd thing to say. :-o There *IS* a good movie about rich pretending to be a street bum though. Check out: "Life Stinks" (1991) I like that movie. Funny, entertaining and a good ending :) |

Interesting. Until I came to RFC, I always thought that paprika basically had no taste at all and only used it a cute topping occasionally. It *was* always from a grocery store though and probably very old and had lost it's taste. |

Popeye, yoose can get rid of yoose fly lice. Go to the drug store and they will sell yoose a product to get rid of yoose crabs. Be sure to treat the ole mexican woman's crotch too, or yoose will just catch the crabs again next time yoose eats her. |

My laptops have a touchpad for moving the mouse. Annoying at first but I got used to it. Once I get the annoying Windows10 one going, I'll probably use a separate mouse and a keyboard. |
