Get used to the cat food , grandma

[FuzzyRabbit]

7. Cat food used to be inexpensive.

I can remember before food stamps, when the drug store I worked at had a sale on canned cat food, many older women would buy a dozen or more cans. This is when cat food came in 12 oz cans instead of 3 and 5 oz cans.

I was new to the store and asked an older worker why these women were buying so much cat food. I learned that cat food was all they could afford to eat. Then food stamps were introduced, and over time we had fewer cat food sales.
