Poor Ohio Family Forced to Scrimp On Food

cwo_ghwebb · 07-18-2008, 04:11 PM

NPR aired a sad piece on the Nunez family in Ohio who can no longer afford meat.

It's a good thing they're a radio channel.

Gloria Nunez has never worked. She says that since her car broke down (imagine that?) her daughter can't look for a job either.
And, they're scrimping on food:

The rising cost of food means their money gets them about a third fewer bags of groceries — $100 used to buy about 12 bags of groceries, but now it's more like seven or eight.

They could probably do just fine with a few bags less of groceries, but that's just me.

A little walking probably wouldn't hurt either.

As said, you just can't make this stuff up!

Ya gotta wonder sometimes.

That is almost as good as that one with the picture of the pregant mother smoking and headlines that read "Mother worries about damages loud street work will do to her un-born child"

I dunno.

Alot of cheap food is fattening as hell. At least the daughter is trying to get another job.

The comments are killing me...

There's enough blubber on those two to hibernate until 2010. If they ever go swimming, they better avoid Japanese waters. "Thar she blows..."

Liposuction those two and use it for biofuel. It ought to run a bus for a month.

Holy Heffers, Batman!
