It doesn’t matter what food you eat, it’s still too good for you. How long until the articles about “splurging” on instant ramen come out?

[–] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 2 points 17 minutes ago

You can afford instant ramen?!

Stop buying (checks notes) food!! 🥑😤

If you buy a rotisserie chicken, a seven layer dip and some tortillas all you have to do is make rice and you have enough food for a family or a single person for a couple days for cheap.

In five years when its even more dire WSJ will be posting about how millenials are splurging on sliced bread and milk.

If Gen Alpha would just be happy with water they could own a home!

Hoarding all their functional kidneys instead of buying a starter home for eight million dollars.

If you're writing stories like this do us all a favor and just burn yourself alive.

If they were interested in doing favors for humanity, they wouldn’t be working at WSJ

splurging on rotisserie chicken

You mean those cheap chickens they sell at grocery stores that can feed you for days?

and gut-healthy juices

so they don't have to have healthcare. Don't forget that this is owned by Murdoch, a truly evil shit stain.

Costco rotisserie chicken is to die for. I mean, literally. Motherfuckers waiting in line for that shit and don't you dare walk in front of the line when they start putting them in the case, you'll get killed.

“I’ve been eating Rotisserie Chickens at Costco everyday, one a day, for the last 25 years. It all started when Costco came to New York in the 90s, the first one was in Staten Island.”

But then he goes off the deep end about “LED light poisoning”

I was thinking more Fat Bastard, but text isn’t great for conveying Scottish accents in general, let alone the single word response.

Stupid Millennials! You're supposed to magically develop bodies which survive off instant noodles and works until it's 70!

Walmart and Sam's near me have started rationing theit rotisserie chickens, they only make a certain number per day and when they are gone they don't make any more.

[–] YellowParenti@lemmy.wtf 1 points 9 minutes ago

The rotisserie is just to get you in the door. They sell it at a loss, but know you're going to buy a bunch of stuff once you get there. I guess ppl are now just going in to buy 1 or 2, 50lbs bags of rice and beans and dipping out.

Rate proposed community notes

Presumably "a house costs more than a chicken."

[–] MonkeyDumpster@lemmy.org 6 points 1 hour ago

these articles are just trolling at this point with these kinds of headlines...

[–] foodandart@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 hour ago

Oh, you fuckers!!

Is this why I can't get any rotisserie chickens at Market Basket anymore?

FUCK!!

LOL!

(I recently discovered avocado toast.. it's quite nice! Job well done.)
