    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.

                The paper wasn’t discussing food stamp programs or even what food you might already have

                    What they claimed was “a whole foods plant-based diet is 30% cheaper.”

                    Which is factually supported by the study, even if you’d prefer to interpret it to mean something else
