But...that is the common definition of "food desert."

"A food desert is an area that has limited access to affordable and nutritious food."

I realize the article has issues, but the definition has sources cited for its common usage. If you don't like the definition, fine, but it's a definite term for a defined phenomenon. You don't get to pretend the phenomenon doesn't exist because the term isn't perfect...

Maybe English isn't their first language. I never heard of the phrase before. TIL.
