If you find yourself struggling to afford basic necessities like eggs, milk, or breakfast meats, don’t worry, the world’s most preeminent financial media publication has a solution: just skip breakfast!
On Tuesday, the Wall Street Journal published a brief, yet infuriating story detailing the exorbitant rise in food costs of late. Titled, “To Save Money, Maybe You Should Skip Breakfast,” the story advocates for people to flat-out avoid breakfast staples like eggs if they’re worried about rising food costs. And to add insult to injury, the WSJ even hid the majority of a story behind a paywall, which led to a hilarious social media lashing; because, after all, while regular folks may not be able to afford breakfast, the media would still appreciate your funding of more stories like these.
