This argument would only make sense if you don't need food to work and that no one would buy food... Nither is a thing. Also you don't just produce food to feed people, many food products are a thing because they taste good, they are not very efficiently nutritious, so good tasting food is a thing impossible for communism as it would "waste resources"
- Tasty food exists. Checkmate, libs.
  
  Yes, tasty food exist because people make money selling it or the spices you need to make it...
  
  I don't know, dude. My mom baked rubarb pies all the time and my grandma made a mean chicken and dumplings. Pretty sure people make good food regardless of the economic system they live under.
  You're probably talking about junk food, I'm guessing?
  
  How dare people be compensated, they should be slaves
- It’s not an argument. It’s what happens. When people don’t purchase all of the food that places are selling, it ends up in dumpsters rather than going to hungry people. Go to any chain restaurant place that sells baked goods and check their dumpster at night.
  
  The fact that its going to the dumbster is obviously not good, that's something that is changing, here where i live many stores gift it to "stores" that "sell" it for a symbolic price.
  Thats however absolutely not the point of the "meme" or what i said.
  
  Nah, that was definitely the point of the meme.
  
  If you say so...
- "People go to elite private schools, therefore we shouldn't have public ones."
  "People live in mansions, therefore we shouldn't have housing assistance."
  "People get high paychecks, therefore we shouldn't have welfare."
  The conservative mindset, ladies and gentlemen.
- Bro eats mcdonalds 💀💀💀
- Its always the guys with anime pfps
- I'm fine with this. What say you?
  Didn't expect That response now did ya?
  
  Yes i did expect some commie to show up and say something like that.
  Wtf is meant with "what say you?"
  Yeah because you never experienced how soulless and lifeless the food of a commie country tastes. Try cooking without spices for a week. And spices are by far not the only stuff that is nonexistent in commieland.
  
  "Communists do not have spices!"
  Well that's an argument I haven't read before. Yeah, we let people suffer and die because they cannot buy food, but our system has no alternatives because.. we have spices. Sorry, you have to die poor, my food neeeds spices.
  
  What are you talking about? Vietnamese food is delicious. So is Cuban food. There's a reason why there's a ton of Vietnamese Pho and Cuban food restaurants in the U.S.
  I used to live in the San Fernando Valley in L.A. and there was a Cuban bakery in Burbank, which was probably the most popular bakery in the Valley. Huge lines. My wife once waited two hours to get me a tres leches cake for my birthday.
  So, again, what are you talking about?
  
  So clearly the alternative is to let the rich drive species into extinction to eat something rare, while the poor don't even get flavorless gruel without justifying their existence.
