We are spoilt for grocery choice thesdays and don't realise it.

A housewife poses with a week's worth of groceries in 1947 (except milk). It cost $12.50. Of this she feeds herself, husband, 2 kids and a cat.

You’re not considering a lot of differences in the way people eat. And cost is just part of it. Culturally speaking, not everyone had the same diet even back then.

@bijouxbroussard it's just a random picture of its time. Not meant for any particular culture.

@meggie But since it is random and doesn’t take into account various cultures, "spoiled" is a subjective judgment. 🤔

@bijouxbroussard ok i will remove it if it offends you. Sorry.

@meggie No, please don’t, and it doesn’t. This was just something that occurred to me.
