#1 While you know nothing liberal indoctrinators at your knuckle dragging universities are busy spouting of bs, the white folk are too busy to listen. Grow your own corn.

#2 Yes, the “white people” are too busy to listen.

#3 the food consumption habits of white people are normalized

You mean they are not normal?

#4 Who in their right mind wants to remove feedback loops and social norming that tend to increase better and healthier food habits on people?

Farmers markets tend to push less processed, lower carb foods which are actually an improvement to the high carb, highly processed foods that "people of color" have come to make the front and center feature of their cuisine over the past fifty years and are responsible for the epidemic of obesity and diabetes they are suffering.

Leftists blaming a diet promoted by farmers markets for the dietary problems of the urban poor and people of color is much the same as leftists blaming white cops for being a major cause of the death of black people when thousands of times more are killed by the violent culture of the ghetto. In other words, illogical in both cases.

#6 How are the markets working in Zimbabwe? I'm sure a Go Fund Me program for you to move there for a lifetime study might probably fly.

#7 As a former Geology prof, I view these idiots with a heavy heart. Geology is a science of how the Earth works. It is not a pseudo-science of how they think man works. Sad to see the intellectual rot of the left has infected what used to be pure science.

The same social justice kak disturbers who brought hope and change to Zim (Cubans, Russians, Chinese) are responsible for leftest ideologues right here. Same table, same cloth. They're just on a slightly different schedule.

#9 Judging one by the color of their skin rather than the content of their character. A great man would define that as racism. KKK is taken so I guess BLM will do.

#10 Doesn't America produce enough self-haters that we now have to import them from Europe?

#11 Funny enough, a good portion of the sellers are Latinos that either have extra from the pick or have their own farms they sell excess at these farmer markets.

I've also seen a wide spectrum of customers from all walks of live and color.

So I would go back to the drawing board with this pile of steaming theory, you asshats.

#12 Most of the sellers at our nearby urban farmer's market are black and muslim. They make a point of putting up signs that EBT cards are welcome too. Is this an example of racism against white working folks?

#13 Warthog, don't forget there are two strains of Geology, the science people and then the One-Earthers from 'Environmental' studies. They are the heretics who should be burnt at the stake.

#14 Some of the best farmer's markets are in Georgia and many are Soul Food based and over %50 black customers.

#15 Beo: in Zimbabwe they preached social justice but practice garden-variety mercantilist colonialism from the 18th century with the Chinese in the drivers' seat. I'm torn between hating them and wanting to hire someone like Xi or (since Xi is busy) Hu to run the State Department. They're a whole lot better at actually getting profits and growth and employment for their nation even though the whole process is corrupt.

#16 Profs Tweedledee and Tweedledumb apparently don't get out much. At any of the farmer's markets that I've been to for years in CA, most of the sellers are folks of ethnicity. In addition, Dee and Dumber don't seem to have heard of Mother Michelle O's alleged food deserts and their local solutions.

#20 Ever consider that the "habits of white people" are both normal and of value to society? That in the past history of Western Civilization that the "habits of white people" have contributed immensely to the quality of life, to the benefit of mankind, and to the success of the Western world. Jackasses!

From casual observation at grocery store checkout lines, overweight EBT card holders get plenty of protein. Maybe too much protein.

#23 As a SDSU alumni Life Member, they signed me up for a year subscription to San Diego Magazine. Today's issue arrived with an unfortunate cover: Inside San Diego's Big Farmers' Market Boom. I think I'll let the Magazine and Alumni Association know :-)
