Not being able to take a holiday once a year, no TV or playstation is considered poverty here.And yes you could eat on $1 a day in the UK so the comparison is completely valid.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

they eat in McD's cos they are fooking bone idle and cannot be bothered to cook
even if they could be bothered to cook it consists of putting a ready meal in the microwave and waiting for the ding
if they bought fresh veggies and cuts of cheap meat and made soups, casseroles etc they could eat a lot more cheaply (because that is how ther vast majority of britian used to live) but that requires some sort of time, effort and skill - so we are fookedComment

Originally posted by The Spartan View PostAhhh but if you are poor so to speak should you be able to afford it?
For loads of normal, working, nominally middle class families, McD is a treat. That fact makes it pretty clear they are not exactly rolling in money.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

When I was a poor student it was a little bit of a luxury to eat there or Burger king.
Nowadays I avoid eating there because the food is unhealthy.Comment
