I can afford Michelin star roasted chickens.

I guess that means I am not allowed to buy groceries or something? Or care and have any interest in how the food supply works? Who is going to stop me from reading books and articles about nutrition and economics and farm policy?

    ...what? That's literally the opposite of my point.

    You're in the position where you can be intentional with your food choices. Good for you.

    People buying pre-cooked chickens because that's all they can afford aren't.

    Most people buying pre cooked chickens aren't doing so because it's their only option. They are doing so because it's convenient and they are hood winked by the loss leader pricing into paying more for less.

    If loss leader pricing didn't work companies wouldn't do it.
