@timcampbellsms: @Dollar Tree can you explain this food? I am a social work student who on a project is using arts to communicate social justice issues like food insecurity, and it's pretty insulting when packaged food looks one way but what comes out of the package is different in how little it offers from the package. This is an injustice against people who would rely on this food. #socialworkstudent #socialwork
Weird how no companies have commented here...but are so quick to get a free advertisement everywhere else...wonder why

Please keep going, say it louder, we all deserve edible and nutrient dense food. No matter your tax bracket.

In Japan the food MUST look like the product being advertised. I wish that was made legal here.

And people say “what do you expect for $1.25 etc.” and that’s the problem.

It’s equivalent to Judy Hopps opening her ‘Carrots for One’ package.

Also for $2.50? Not a deal. You could get a whole bag of rice with multiple servings for that.

It’s also falsifying the ingredient label

Ive noticed dollar tree sells things for a few cents higher than walmart, with fewer ounces… its very upsetting bc i know people sometimes ONLY live near dollar tree or dollar general (which is EVEN worse)

“what’d you expect from something so cheap?” if THIS is the expectation for FOOD sold to HUMANS, at ANY price, ‘poverty level’, or even which STORE it’s sold at. cause, granted that is definitely sold other than dollar tree, and definitely sold for more. Yet we have “no excuse” to not be ‘healthy’. We are in probably the worst recession ever, and what’s so funny is they got so mad about population during covid, that they tried to ban abortion, but when WE the people complain about BASIC NECESSITY, it’s OUR fault. yeah no. American isn’t freedom for us, it’s freedom for the government to do whatever they want

Honey, this isn’t just dollar tree, this is EVERY SINGLE frozen meal or prepackaged food, in existence. I’ve never seen anything look the way the picture does.

Fun fact something doesn’t have to be made locally for it do be advised as locally fresh. For example cheese can be shipped to Wisconsin, stored for 24 hours in cold storage, and once that’s done it becomes local cheese. It’s sold and advertised as local cheese 🧀! I urge people to research!

I just want to thank you all so much for your comments 🥹 and for tagging Dollar Tree! I thought nobody would care about this video or I would get cancelled for it, but your words of encouragement and discussion amongst each other is beautiful. Sidenote, if you want to see the dollar store dinner series that I talk about in the video, the link is in my bio.

Poverty exploitation.
Poverty tax.
If you have money and can pay bills on time or in advance- you get rewards.
If you do not have enough money and can not pay bills on time - you have to pay more for not having enough - late fees.
If you have money and can buy in bulk- you get discounts. You pay less per unit/item.
If you are low on money, u pay more per unit/item, have to limit the amount you need/use, be willing to buy expiring item or like you are highlighting here - being offered food at an affordable price that strips away some of there their dignity and worth as a person.
Love ur content.

Dollar tree had saved me when I was on my own at 18 with so support. It’s really sad to see how younger me would have been priced out of so many essentials because of how all these price increases have added up.

My food bank specifically for kids , gives us expired canned food. How long does it take for canned food to expire??? As much as beggars can’t be choosers, I’m not feeding my children expired food that can make them sick. I work 7 days a week and they are home alone often as I have full custody. Makes me sad.
