      That should appeal to the whimsy and joie de vivre of Biden supporters.

        We the tax payers pay for staffing for this content.

        Enjoy it. It was expensive.

            Let me say unequivocally, if they told Farm Bureau that Biden had fallen through his asshole and broken his neck, the cheers would be deafening...

              Comparison from Wegmans.com -

              Baked Beans, the least expensive I am finding is 7 cents per ounce, 32 oz would be $2.24, not $1.90 like the video says.

              Ground beef, you have to buy it in the family packs of 5lbs or more to find it for the $8.20 for 2 pounds, if you were just to buy a 2lb pack it's $4.90 per pound or $9.80 for 2...

              Ice cream, $4.69 per half-gallon? I can find it a heckuva lot cheaper than that? $3.00? Easy...

              Center cut pork chops are $4.20 a pound, 3 pounds are $12.60, nearly a dollar more than their claim.

              Cheapest lemonade that I can find is 5 cents per oz. That means 2.5 quarts would be $4.00, not $3.65.

              A one pound package of Kraft American Cheese is $6.00, not $5.00

              And the potato chips went by too quickly to catch.

              I don't know what last year's numbers were to compare, but I can tell you straight out that you can't buy any of those items at Wegmans (which is not an expensive grocery store) for close to the prices they listed (except for ice cream, which they oddly went very expensive on...)

                        Secondly, it shows how out of touch they are. One of the main topics of conversation down here is food and cooking.

                        Everybody is bitching about the price of groceries....

                            Maybe if Democrats were told that the best hot dogs are Hebrew National, they would begin to hate them.
