No but like seriously, why are vegan and vegetarian options always MORE expensive at restaurants. Whenever I cook my self, the meat is BY FAR the most expensive part of any meal. Meanwhile stuff like soy strips are DIRT CHEAP, not to mention they last basically forever!
The canteen I go to for lunch actually sells the meatless meals for 2/3 of the price, always a taunting reminder. Like hell yea, that's how ya convert me!
Mate what the shit
Was gonna say, I remember when I though 5 bucks was a lot, and I was probably like 8 or 10.
Not sure what you mean, so gonna just shotgun approach my response and maybe one of the things are somehow relevant.
By "toddler", I meant like sometime between infant and kindergarten. Idk the actual age.
I was young enough to not remember, so I just don't know what it was. Just that it was a lot.
I was a stubborn eater. My mom also tried other things like not letting me other things until I tried something new. But found my tolerance for starving myself was more than their tolerance for me staving. I lost some absurd about of weight (like 10lbs per week) for a few weeks straight over being a picky eater in 2nd grade (that was not my mom's doing nor was it intentional).
