    This argument would only make sense if you don’t need food to work and that no one would buy food… Nither is a thing. Also you don’t just produce food to feed people, many food products are a thing because they taste good, they are not very efficiently nutritious, so good tasting food is a thing impossible for communism as it would “waste resources”

          I don’t know, dude. My mom baked rubarb pies all the time and my grandma made a mean chicken and dumplings. Pretty sure people make good food regardless of the economic system they live under.

          You’re probably talking about junk food, I’m guessing?

      It’s not an argument. It’s what happens. When people don’t purchase all of the food that places are selling, it ends up in dumpsters rather than going to hungry people. Go to any chain restaurant place that sells baked goods and check their dumpster at night.
