Aww that’s so cute!
I mean I still see comics from time to time from his that are amusing.
At this point I kind of just accept that all long running comics/web comics have some absolute awful arcs/panels. I think I assume it just comes with having to come up with content daily and they probably can’t spend a lot of time thinking about it?
This is bad and you should feel bad.
How dare you take the most out of pocket and tone deaf comic and make it a heart breaking political piece?
2·3 days agoRaspberries? Oof I can’t imagine great. But let’s see.
$4 for 200 calories. So raspberries would be off the top at 2 dollars for 100 calories (just looking at nutrition label). Fresh has even worse.
Kumquat I can’t find a solid price on, but given each fruit has about 13 calories, I can’t imagine it’s a good source of them.
So yeah those are for sure flavor and vitamin eats and not calorie eats XD
They said Walmart is the source… so off I go!
Based on the nutrition label the container has 4,320 calories at about 10 dollars.
So 1 dollar for 400 calories, or .25 for 100.
But given they reference walmart and USDA it’s very likely these are not accurate outside the US.
The fact that he took this chance to target a group of innocent immigrants again who have already been the target of death threats as a result of his lies, and then he had the audacity to tell them not to fact check him?
He’s a monster and I can’t stand him.
Fingers crossed for them! I hope they get the wages they need to not need to live by this chart, and guarantees that even as the docks modernize the workers will have good paying jobs regardless.
Haha I mean brown rice is cheaper! And buying flour then making baked goods is cheaper! Do not embrace the dark side!
Oh yeah he mentions his source is Walmart in a specific state, but amazon is more consistent here.
Always interesting to hear how different stuff is in different countries!
Yeah canned tuna is almost always a dollar for a dinky little can of 100 calories. A pound of wings has many times that, with the online one I found being $3/lb.
So I guess this chart is doing a pretty good job at breaking up some preconceived notions!

4160 calories for 14.23
Coming out to 292 calories per dollar, or around 30 cents for 100 calories. Looks to be about where it’s at! He might have found an even cheaper source. I think this chart does a great job of pointing out that just because things like almonds are more per pound than chicken, doesn’t mean they aren’t better deals if you are concerned with energy.
Let’s find out!
Cheapest per ounce sugar on walmart.com
6,810 calories, or 2k calories per dollar. So it’d be hanging around brown rice as one of the cheapest options.
Some people requested it for comparison! But let’s see if I can do some quick back of the box math.
1200 calories for 2 dollars, so 600 calories per dollar or .15 for 100 calories, putting it around oat in price terms. Which is expected since it’s just bread and sugar, but still far more expensive than like pasta. Name brand is a lot more expensive.

It’s important to eat well and remember that if you made 7 thousand dollars a day since the birth of Christ, you still wouldn’t have as much money as Bezos.
EDIT: An hour! I was trying to be dramatic and failed!
Yeah shouldn’t a real shocker for anyone who compares prices and calories!
Only thing that caught me off guard is pork belly is chilling down by potatoes in cost per calorie! But given how fatty pork belly is, I guess it makes sense!
Well we can easily check! It says they used Walmart.
Here’s the cheapest per ounce I see for tuna:
It’s 3.22 for 400 calories, so one dollar gets you 124 calories of tuna.
Then cheapest wings I see at $3 a pound, and have 4,840 calories for 24 dollars, coming out to 200 calories per dollar:
So for me doing the math JUST off packaging (he appears to use a nutritional calculator) it’s coming up chicken wings is cheaper source of calories.
So it’s possible in this persons state their chicken was slightly cheaper, and they didn’t have the generic tuna. But even in my state where chicken costs a little bit more than what is listed, and my tuna costs a little less, chicken wings are still close to 50% cheaper for calories.
I wonder if it’s just a “Feeling” thing, because a little can of tuna is just a dollar! That must be cheap, right?.. but a can of tuna is 100 calories, which isn’t a great deal.
I think it’s good to point out how dense they are when shopping. Cause you might be like “walnuts are so expensive per pound, no way they’re worth it!” when really they are, they are just crazy dense.
Also if you are caring about “bulk” eating, where you want to make sure your stomach feels full all day, you want more things on the left side cause you’ll feel like you are eating more food.
so it is interesting I felt!
He already has!
Things are as you expect, Our beans are in the bottom right absolutely chilling as kings.
A reasonable policy
