    The thing that always boggles my mind is seeing cheap materials in Canada. This is one of the highest cost of living places on Earth. We should expect that anything involving manual labour will be stupid expensive here… But materials? Basic ingredients? The minimum hourly wage in Canada higher than the average daily wage in a country like India. If raw materials really cost what people charge us, most of the world would suddenly become corpses laying unsheltered in the sun.

    If I’m paying you over $20/hr, use the good stuff because the cost of ingredients or materials is going to be a rounding error on the bottom line!

      Is this guy new?

      They charges what they can get away with it and sell us the cheapest shit away with… the difference is the profit in their pocket.

      Why would they sell us anything of high quality when they can sell us shit and we eat it. JuNk FoOd GooD, I CaNT HeLp It

          Being new at something is something to be proud of. I am insulted by your assertion that being recognized as new is an insult.

          To your question: No, not even you.
