I find dark humor and cold comfort in the fact that the average Trump supporter will suffer far more than I will over this.

Apparently now effective Tuesday.

I'm sitting here wondering how long it is going to take people to realize that the guy in the White House is seriously messed up. Hopefully that will happen before too many people die.

Please tell me again how this is going to bring grocery prices down?

Coffee and egg prices at an all-time high as of January 29:

My understanding is the Trumptards are now saying we can grow our own coffee in Greenland.

I fervently hope that is a parody account.

You know, avecados can be frozen. Cut in half, squeeze on lemon juice, put on tray to freeze, bag. As I recall I did take them out of the peel.
I did this when Covid hit. Changes the texture but great for guacamole. I noticed Rosauer's prices on avecados now matches Thriftway's. For a long time there have been good prices on the avecados when it was Hanks. I knew it would end sometime. If the price gets too high, I won't buy them.
About this time of year, asparagus goes up to $9/lb. Hank's would not stock it when it was that high. Wasn't selling and I wasn't buying.
