    Millennials attempting to kill the food industry by buying less of it. Economists baffled.

      Your comment reminds me of that time The Wall Street Journal unironically told people to save money by skipping breakfast.

        Sigh I grew up poor. Only got food at dinner. My family didn’t qualify for free school lunch. Learned not to eat as often. Was a change when my SO wanted 3 whole meals a day.

      They’re already blaming Millennials for killing the real estate industry by not buying enough houses.

            I’m completely fine with that. I don’t want to waste time engaging in the generation wars that boomers, millennials, and gen z go back and forth on all the time.

            I hope I said the right gen names lol
