    This is the most privileged thing you could say.

    “Hey, why isn’t everyone eating sustainably sourced GMO-free, organic, locally-grown food all the time?”

    Spoiler alert: it costs more

      Yeah, this is the thing. Does literally anyone want to go to Walmart? No. Is it the place I can afford? Increasingly, still no. Not sure I can even afford to walk past whatever the good version of a Whole Foods is today, though.

      Haha exactly. People shop at Walmart because they work at target and don’t make enough money to shop at Whole Foods.
