For fuck's sake, let a person have some ice cream...

[–] IsThisAnAI@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I make my own I've cream. $2-3 dollars for a gallon of the best custard vanilla bean you've ever had.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

Is this along with the 2 pounds of pork for $6 you claim you can buy that doesn't actually track with real pork prices?

Edit: Also, "oh boy! Vanilla ice cream! My favorite flavor!" -- no one

[–] IsThisAnAI@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Make chocolate chip for all I care. It's easy and delicious.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world -1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I see, so at one specific smaller grocery store chain, if you are on food stamps, pork tenderloin costs more than you said it did.

[–] IsThisAnAI@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (2 children)

LMAO Wegmans known for how inexpensive they are. You can go buy an entire pasture raised pig and have it butchered to your preference and vacuum sealed for $800 , get the good cuts too and have it feed your family the entire year.

What rates are you referring to?

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Assuming the average person has the storage capacity for an entire pig is either wildly ignorant or deliberate trolling

[–] IsThisAnAI@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

I never said they do. In fact I said just that an hour ago in this thread. And a butchered pig will fit in a large chest freezer. It's not that inaccessible at all outside of city apartment living. It's a viable option for many.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world -1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Cook. I'll just drive to the nearest Wegmans.

Thanks for the money-saving tip. Which cooler brand is best for 2 pounds of pork?

[–] IsThisAnAI@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

So what, your probably Dayton, Cincinnati area? You a Krogers person? They are quite popular there and I found some links for similar pricing 2.69/lb. Found some pork loin out in Indy as well. Do I need to go as far as at Louis to cover my bases?

I'll ask again, what rates were you specifying for pricing?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world -1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

You are incorrect about where I live, but nice try.

[–] IsThisAnAI@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)
[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world -1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Why should I answer questions of someone who won’t admit they’re wrong? Unless you think I’m lying about not being in Cincinnati or St. Louis. Maybe I’m in both at the same time!

[–] IsThisAnAI@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

So maybe I'm further off your location, but unless you were making up shit earlier you're likely on the East Coast within that radius of i70. So yes I'm estimating quite a bit and am wrong.

What rates do you refer to?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world -1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Ok, to answer your question: I never referred to rates. I just went back and looked to make sure. The only person talking about rates in this conversation is you.

So you want me to explain why I said that the thing you responded to me with didn't actually agree with your claim? Because you claimed it was $6 and it was actually over $9 and so your claim was false?

[–] IsThisAnAI@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Lolololol that's for a 4.7lbs package AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Good lord education really is lacking!
