    The paper wasn’t discussing food stamp programs or even what food you might already have

        What they claimed was “a whole foods plant-based diet is 30% cheaper.”

        Which is factually supported by the study, even if you’d prefer to interpret it to mean something else

          …for a limited segment of the population.

            It’s actually not speaking about the personal costs born by consumers, it’s talking about the cost of purchasing food for the diet.

            As I said, if the paper was discussing the systemic hurtles and personal choices of consumers it would be a different paper, saying a different thing.
