Sorry I haven't been on here in a while, couldn't remember my email back last year so got a new name.

Thought this maybe the place to let off some steam about this.

A few friends in one group have been doing some food bank challenge. Apparently to raise awareness but they are treating it like s game for giggles and have been boasting the last few days how much each of their portions cost. They are trying to top each other.

I find it really distasteful, they are both well off have fancy kitchens, dont work and drive everywhere. When people in a food bank often only have a kettle! Has really annoyed me

Asda today hardly expensive shop!
The point was if you need one it cost you 1.89-1.99 whatever that week not just 10 or 20p it's having the £2 to splash out in one go

Sainsburys are about the same. I think most people can afford that. Some basic herbs and spices are sold quite cheaply (30p for mixed herbs, eg.)
Things aren't quite as bad as some people seem to think.
