All that means is that US wages are too low. But, be they what they are: - 300 grams is not a bad serving. - for the folks on minimum wage, its only 12% of their income which Im not sure if its a bad ratio historically. - "man does not live on bread alone" ie, you can't eat cheap ham everyday, nor should salmon be a daily staple. But variety of food is a necesity, not a luxury. - ham at $2/lb sounds disgusting and probably causes more health problems (nitrates) than just eliminating animal protein. - My wife used to live on minimum wage with no external help padding her income. She still ate a serving of fresh salmon every week. Im sorry, but if farmed salmon is a luxury, as a society our standards of living have collapsed.
