@wdlindsy@toad.social https://www.axios.com/2024/02/27/price-food-us-inflation-data-groceries Actually, we're at a 30-year high right now at 11%, but go on and post to social media without data so people who already know you can blindly agree with you and vilify people like me who read something and say, "Oh, that's interesting. I wonder where I can find source data to support that?" and then go looking only to find this is utter nonsense.

@tyggna@mastodon.social @wdlindsy@toad.social Two different numbers. In OP's quoted article it's groceries as a percentage of pay, in the one you quoted it's food (which includes dining out) as a percentage of disposable income.

@tyggna@mastodon.social I'm sorry you find Toby Buckle's commentary disturbing. I myself like being disturbed — by the truth.
