What's depressingly unsurprising about those stats is that the shittier the food, the lower the GP%.
Oh sorry, you want real cheese and not extruded plastic masquerading as a dairy-like substance? Better pay more. Want something more sustainable, like oat milk? 55% markup.
And people wonder why the poor are less healthy. Fuck these fucking ghouls.
The oat milk infuriates me. I make it at home and it costs next to nothing almond milk I understand but oat milk should be much cheaper
Most Canadian oat/almond/soy milk substitutes are filled with carrageenan, xantham gum and guar gum. The ones that aren't, like Earth's Own Naked Oat are double the price of the others, exceeding the price of milk.
I've discovered that I can buy local, unhomogenized milk in my city that comes in glass instead of plastic or PFAS lined cardboard. The price is $5/bottle but the taste is miles above the cartel milk or the substitutes, and oddly doesn't trigger my mild lactose intolerance either.
A neighboring town has a creamery and their milk is famous around here, it's so delicious and wholesome. Plus you can turn the glasses back in for a $2 rebate on the next bottle
