Rice and beans, baby! It's a world wide staple for a reason.

Yeah if it were that simple, world wide hunger would have been solved.

Some places just don't have anything to eat. The person in the photo used their money foolishly. It's not the same problem...

I tried chicken and rice for a few weeks as a diet and it was beyond miserable. Only thing that kept me on it was using sauces I shouldn't have. Yes, cookies and sweets are a little more money than rice and beans but anyone who has been subjected to the latter can testify it's akin to eating condensed sadness. High fructose corn syrup makes this garbage dirt cheap but that's a whole other issue.

Try using spices and vegetables. When people say rice and beans they don't mean literally only those two ingredients

The cart is all cookies and unnecessary shit like that. Comparing that and how eating the same food for a long time is "miserable" to places that are starving because they don't have food is amazing. Peak America energy lol
