Those dumbo's don't even know the difference between BBQ (smoked meat) and a Cookout....

It's ridiculous the price of stuff.

I have started forcing myself to drink more water but I use flavored packets in it because I hate drinking straight water. Has gone up over two dollars a pack in the last year. Nothing outrageous but little shite adds up.

I’m doing hot dogs, natty lite, and watermelon. Going cheap this year. Maybe next year I can afford the usual spread.

I get 3 pounds of grass fed and finished regenerative beef for $17. You are doing it wrong.

Think about this...

The eff dee A is so lax in what toxins and chemicals are allowed to be put into our foods in one way or another, that most civilized nations completely ban the importation of American foods, including a near-worldwide ban on importing American pork.

Many countries have outright banned American beverages and soft drinks.

All these lax policies and our astonishingly high rates of food production, yet food prices continue to skyrocket into oblivion?

Ask why.
