Wholely Batman and the cost of M&M's!

I was just in a grocery store wondering about and went down the candy isle!

To my shocked surprise! A bag 34oz of M&’s was $20.19!

That is just wrong!

Thanks Trump!

you have to factor in the cost of the root canal and crown should you break a tooth on one.

While Pervert Hoover's stupid-ass tariffs a significant part of the problem, cocoa prices are high thanks to crop reduction due to the effects of war, climate change, and growers switching to more lucrative gold mining. I suspect some price gouging by retailers in there, as well.

At 9.2 ounces for the pack, that comes to $13.45 if it was sold in a 34 ounce size.

I'd rather have the Nuggets than the M&Ms too.
