THE BIG BOX FOOD DESERT - HEALTHY CHOICES FOR THE MOBILE ONLY !

Speaking of who's responsible for poor nutrition in our cities Big box stores who claim to be offering better options, like walmart are STILL GUILTY AS CHARGED!  I'm disabled and homebound so every time I try to order healthier food for delivery to my home I'm limited to only the junky, sugary, salty items (unless I'm willing to order wholesale cases of each product).

 The website, unwilling to debate the issue, says simply "buy that item on your NEXT VISIT to our store" !   But what if I am UNABLE to walk, drive or get a ride to shop "IN STORE ONLY"? Well, says my local mega-mart, TOUGH LUCK - JUST EAT CAKE !  Maybe that is also a major reason why the store's isles are home to so many extremely obese, immobile customers who monopolize the electric scooters originally intended for the elderly and disabled.

Enormously obese people are probably shopping IN STORE struggling to find healthier options ONLY AVAILABLE  to the ambulatory 'elite' who can sprint through the front doors.

The end result of this perverted form of marketing(impulse buyers wanted!)is 1) that the very poor, elderly and homebound are only allowed to buy the junky stuff which the store wants to rid itself of faster.

2)By forcing the immobile obese to shop IN-STORE they are adding to air pollution because their extra weight causes their cars (or public buses) to burn more fuel in stop & go traffic, especially older cars and trucks which low income people often drive and

3) Obese shoppers who could shop online take up mart-carts as well as cause them to be out of service more frequently therefore creating a disservice to other customers needing to use them t

AMERICANS ARE SO STUPID!

At walmart I found a new brand of Italian peperoni that was cheaper than the usual two, came in a larger quantity and didn't even have to be refridgerated! It should've been a hot seller right?

Wrong it was a dud, took months to sell out and now is no longer carried by walmart. WHY you ask? Well most likely it was because the producer made the big mistake of decorating the package with THE ITALIAN FLAG ! (It WAS Italian Pepperoni after all.)

Well the problem with this is that the Italian flag looks alot like THE MEXICAN FLAG which many Americans have seen a bit too many of in recent years, so naturally, they all ran the other way in droves.

My conclusion : A great new food product is now no longer available BECAUSE STUPID AMERICANS DON'T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ITALY & MEXICO !!!
