This reminds me of an argument I had a few Thanksgivings ago with an aunt who loudly proclaimed that the $0.49 can of black beans from the bargain store is exactly the same as the $3.49 can of black beans from the supermarket.
- kube-system 5y agoThat could be the case, for black beans. $3.49 for a can of black beans is highway robbery. Beans are among the cheapest foods on the planet. My local Whole Foods charges $0.89 for a 15oz can.
