Food is already rotting in fields. Ironically we will have to import more food from Mexico.

(51,076 posts)with a grand daughter on weekends some. We're paying an average of 100 bucks a week on groceries.
I remember when we first got married, (26 years ago,) and with two sons and all their friends we'd spend an average of 40 bucks a week. We allowed the kids and their friends to eat whatever whenever they wanted. No one in our house went hungry.
I was raised in a very poor family and spent most of my early life, up to about 13 years old when I started working for money, hungry. It sucks.
We eat good but very seldom eat steak or lobster, maybe once a year if that. My wife cooks every night except when we go out on friday nights.
About half the time I cook my own breakfast the rest of the time I go the restaurant
If I'm lucky I might get Salmon patties once every six weeks I love salmon patties, hot off the stove or cold right out of the frig. They sure stink up; the house while their cooking though
Peace to all

The same thing is now happening in several states and the results will be similar.
