From NPR. If you're going to write a story like this, maybe you shouldn't print a picture of the starving people. Ridiculous!
A generation ago, the livelihood of Gloria Nunez's family was built on cars.And here's a picture of The Amazing Starving Nunezes. I bullshit you not.
Her father worked at General Motors for 45 years before retiring. Her mother taught driver's education. Nunez and her six siblings grew up middle class.
Things have changed considerably for this Ohio family.
The rising cost of food means their money gets them about a third fewer bags of groceries — $100 used to buy about 12 bags of groceries, but now it's more like seven or eight. So they cut back on expensive items like meat, and they don't buy extras like ice cream anymore. Instead, they eat a lot of starches like potatoes and noodles.
