It's funny you mention this, because a few days ago I went to my local market to grab milk, and the regular milk was more expensive that the plant-based milk...never thought I'd see this day in the US!

My favorite is that a a celiac, all the gluten free stuff is 20% more expensive. Because you know, rice and tapioca are such expensive, exotic ingredients
The easy solution is to let capitalism run like it's supposed to and have the government remove subsidizes for all corporations. We need to remove monopolies, remove subsidies, reintroduce corporate accountability, and allow genuine market competition. If a business can't survive on its own then it shouldn't. Companies should never get bailouts or become to big to fail.
