Cost of kids is much higher in NYC. For working parents; daycare is about $1500 per month, private school is $20k per year. So tack on $72k for 4 years daycare and $260k for 13 years of private school.

Did anybody else notice that one of the packages almost at the end is labeled “hell?”

That spinach-filled sausage thing has a rather diet-inducing appearance.

EWWWW I had an aunt-in-law that made that nasty herring salad. It’s pickled herring, chopped hard boiled eggs, onions, cream sauce and beets. You chill it up, and when you stir it, it turns nasty pink. It is so totally gross and revolting.

I was wondering the same thing…

When I saw it, I thought the packaging said “with roast beef”

I played around with my little translator tool, and I think it actually says “with red beet,” which I guess would maybe make a little more sense, but I definitely wouldn’t eat something that color unless it was advertised that color.

That food comparison site reminded of something I read about how burger ads rely on people’s natural attraction to the colorful fresh veggies, rather than the actual burger (meaty part) itself. Can’t remember where I saw this though, has anyone else heard this?

Also, what the hell is with that Heringssalat? The packaging shows nothing about neon pink goo…
