The Food Insecurity Lie | Frontpage Mag

But in my new video, Rachel Sheffield, who researches welfare policy at the Heritage Foundation, explains, “Food insecurity is not the same thing as hunger. It just means that they had to rely on cheaper foods, store-brand alternatives … or reduce variety.”
Really? The alarm about “food insecurity” is based on that? Well, yes. Even the U.S. Department of Agriculture, in its fine print, admits that “for most food-insecure households, the inadequacies were in the form of reduced quality and variety of food rather than insufficient quantity.”

Thank you. I had originally thought it meant some days without sufficient food...this is not at all the same thing.

So food insecurity is having food that's of a store brand or lesser quality? Wow. Here I thought it was you missed a meal or more a day.

So I live with food insecurity every day because I buy from Walmart, IGA, and Pay and Pak.
