Municipal Grocery Store Opens to Address Food Insecurity

Next they’re gonna be forced to learn Chinese and Russian 🙄

jk

this is actually a good thing but when Mamdani says it the Republicans go ape shit

Lol when active in the army I did feel like Georgia loved their groceries. Go off base to the small town there you got Kroger's, Food Lion...all this shit I didn't even know existed all still competing with entities like Walmart, and from what I remember they would do that shit with a fighting spirit...but that just sounds like capitalism in a way idk. I just observed while I was serving an active army term is why that's all I have to say about this. @discolé monade probably has something more meaningful to say on Georgia politics about this maybe?

  it's a food desert. that's why you see so many and $ generals and convience stores. and yes, capitalism. bigger/better chains stay out of places like this area.  food lion/piggly wiggly kjs/ they know it's poor folk, so they make sure to keep pricing just as high as others. 

where that new store is opening in ATL, that area has a 14% food insecurity rate. this county has 11.3%, and GA has ave. of 10.7%. those numbers don't look impressive, but.we're talking 1in 7 people with 1 in 4 being children in the CSRA (region)

I need another hint. Was it grammatical?  Cuz the building “once house a Walgreens” or is their another type of mistake 😆

The building now has been repurposed for a food market as part of Mayor Andre Dickens’ broader vision to address food desserts and provide for healthy, connected and thriving neighborhoods.

Can confirm. Evan’s county is very underserved, you have to drive to Statesboro to get anything.
