But what if I told you that the price you pay for that juicy patty doesn’t reflect its true cost? Buckle up as we explore why a pound of hamburger meat could cost a whopping $30 without taxpayer subsidies.
Can we subsidize oyster and other yummy mushrooms instead? Because those are among my expensive treat groceries!
Took me a second to realize you weren't starting a bivalve struggle session.
yes!!! thats what im saying!!
Like it'd be $2ish a lb at this rate. I'd be cooking so many mushrooms, my family would get totally sick of them lol
I highly recommend growing mushrooms is you are friends with people who like them or your family likes them as well. Its soooooooo easy, quick, and low maintenance. The only problem I've encountered is having too many so you'll either be eating mushrooms for every meal for a while or you'll share with friends
The growing list of hobbies I'd like to have, but don't have the time/space to dedicate to lol

Honestly though as far as hobbies go mushroom growing has a very low time requirement

Let’s get a lions mane subsidy going as well, lots of health value in those
Carnists force us to help pay for their meat treats and then go all 
"FUCK YOU WHY DO YOU CARE IF I ENJOY A BURGER YOU DON'T GET TO IMPOSE YOUR MORALITY ON ME." It even happens on this very site!
Dried beans are like less than 2 dollars a pound
black bean burgers taste better than beef burgers
The taste is great but they can be a bit dry at times ish how to fix
to be fair, how do we know that that isn’t also because of subsidies?
Spoiler: It is
Where are the free market libertarians? Oh wait, I forgot they weren't actually politically consistent or coherent.
More like $119.99 if you count the societal cost of climate change
I’m buckled up.
vrooom vroom
As an American I am concerned about the rising cost of my hourly hamburger (mandatory by law)
