I swapped garlic instead of ginger in my chai by accident. Never thought I'd be mad at garlic.

Yeah I have terrible allergies and went to a new doctor, he couldn't do much but I mentioned I use an over the counter nasal spray for $40. He's like oh, let me write you a prescription and now I get a prescription one for free in Canada. Too bad my allergy pills aren't covered though but those are still an affordable price at least.

I don't have nuts so I don't really have a say in this but you could never get me to put Nair in the more sensitive parts of my genitalia. Ball skin is so thin and sensitive, I can't imagine that burn.

Omg lol I didn't even know I could purchase stuff with the google home. I wouldn't anyway because that's silly to me but that's funny if you're right about it being their intent (I don't doubt that you are). I got my google home for free or very cheap with my music streaming account.

This is just a Denny's ad and I know this because I worked there for more than 10 years and we used these exact pictures for probably that entire time.

I'm gonna ask for t for totally cis reasons now. I'm definitely a body builder and absolutely not an 🥚.

You joke but bulk stores exist where you can literally just take your own container and avoid the crappy leaky bags altogether.

It's hugely dependent on a lot of factors but what I can say for sure that's helped for me personally:

  • having more locally sourced options like farmers markets and local butchers
  • not having to commute to work every day (the extra time and energy saved means I'm much more willing to cook something healthy)
  • a healthier work/life balance
  • making more money... Buying local isn't cheap.

I know veggies, even when they're not local, are cheaper than a lot of processed food but not when we're talking convenience and energy spent. Having the energy to prep and cook fresh produce, as well as a local market within walking distance have been the biggest factors for me.

I know I'm a pessimist but I feel like this is another one of those issues where we take the mask off and it's just that monster capitalism underneath.

I've only ever seen Quora as a joke, I didn't think people were actually getting good answers there.
