    If it’s free then throwing it out costs nothing though, right?

    but replacing it would cost something. throwing away perfectly good food isn’t something most people think is a moral good.

      I thought your point was to disregard the morality of the diet and focus on the economics?

          Their link was addressing the claim that eating vegan is a luxury.

          For what the comment was responding to I think it was perfectly well framed, but you can extrapolate anything you want from it if that’s your thing.

            heir link was addressing the claim that eating vegan is a luxury.

            and it did so misleadingly, as being in teh position to always pay full price for food at a store is a luxury.

              Not if by ‘cost’ they meant ‘cost’, and not ‘what they get from the state at no cost’
