Shhh. Your privilege is showing

There are people without cars.

There are people without cars who only have bodegas and Korean mini marts in their neighborhood with limited options.

There are people who don’t make very much money and have to go hard with budgeting their food money.

So shut the fuck up with your self righteous, judgmental, “I can’t believe all people don’t eat organic” rants. 

If you’re not building food co-ops in poor neighborhoods (ya know, the non gentrified ones. Food Co-Ops always pop up in gentrified zones after the brown folks leave)… if you’re not giving rides from poor neighborhoods to Whole Foods or Trader Joes (neither store sets up shop in poor neighborhoods)…..  then shut the fuck up and enjoy your privilege.

Sincerely,

Someone who overheard two privileged people walking out of a Food Co-Op judging people who don’t eat organic whole foods.
