I’ll go first: r/kitty. One of the hundred grillion cat subs back on Reddit, the culture in this one was you posted a cat picture, and the only word allowed in the title or in any comments or replies was “Kitty.”

Someone is using that subreddit for covert communications, I just know it. Either on the level of “if u/PM_me_your_nostrils posts an orange cat, we attack at dawn!” or there’s some steganography going on with the pictures, but that subreddit was too stupid to be as active as it was.

    The highest quality fruits, veggies, and meats go to restaurants leaving only mid stuff at the grocery store. Which makes cooking at home seem inferior to restaurant food even for home chefs. Pushing people to spend more going out and drive capitalism

      For high end restaurants, true.

      However top chefs will happily buy ugly fruit and veg if they taste good.

      Supermarket fresh fruit and veg is always sold on how it looks, not on how it tastes. Shoppers don’t buy ugly vegetables (except when shaped like genitalia).

      I know by personal experience that sometimes my low population density area in the south gets a lower quality of vegetables than the state capitol. I was looking for something to cook. I won’t say what only that the all the items at our local walmart were very small and bruised. This went on for two weeks. I drive to the state capitol and while I’m there go to walmart and they have what I need and they are the right size and of a higher quality.
      Next day at our local walmart I look just to make sure and what they have there is just garbage. I have no doubt its the same for many situations.
