    Nobody lives in a food desert (not sure why you felt the need to do scare quotes there) because of customers ringing up avocados as bananas.

      Why do grocery stores close down in neighborhoods leaving food deserts? “They’re not profitable”

      This is 1000% the same meme as the “States rights to do what motherfucker?”

      I guess overall theft can be a burden to stores so areas where that happen more often (poorer areas I’d guess) are more burdened by that and less profitable. But of course it’s not just because of a singular thing.
