You are not typical nor I suspect represented by many numbers at all. The reason I said not criticizing the writer.
The thing that irks me are that with food stamps, school lunch and breakfast programs and local food pantries, we are being told there are hungry children.
I have watched people with baskets full of expensive garbage and items I can't buy, pay with food stamps or government cards. Children are supposedly starving because the adults in their lives are spending money on junk. When I was a child, we got a can of soda for field days at school, at family reunions and some 7 up and oranges for Christmas. Period. Deserts were far and few between.
100% agree! I was raised the same way. Additionally, my brother and I split a 6oz pop on Sunday (Disney night). Mom popped popcorn and made fudge. We survived and learned valuable lessons.
Im just saying not every one deserves to be denied the candy bar and not everyone deserves a free ride. Our choices, past and present should gauge how much help and oversight we receive.

Pop? Utah or idaho?
Michigan
Very few places called it pop. Now, I can add Michigan.
