        Less space is selling food; more space is selling packages of bloated, processed, marketed stuff that resembles food.

        But, but, but, food deserts? Also, pic would be more effective if walking guy were riding in a scooter cart buying a Stouffer's lasagna.

        They have good deserts in those neighborhoods because they are broken into and robbed regularly. They have to lock up baby formula. Be real.

        The problem is that no ine is buying food they're selling. Stores need to get rid of processed foods and start carrying local & organic
