NYT, Political Commentators Mock Middle Class Family Who s Paying More For Milk Thanks To Inflation | The Daily Caller

The New York Times and liberal commentators mocked a middle class family that spends high sums of money on milk as a result of inflation via Twitter Thursday.

Larry and Krista Stotler, a married couple from Texas, told CNN correspondent Evan McMorris-Santoro that inflation has burdened their large family when it comes to buying groceries. Krista said the rise of dairy prices has caused her family to purchase twelve gallons of milk for $2.79 per gallon a week, up from $1.99 previously.

I suspect milk is sort of a lower middle class and lower class beverage. I drink a lot of milk. LWJ is always trying to get me to drink less. I notice many people do not drink so much milk as I do. Many people are lactose intolerant; Jews for example often are. I suspect I drink so much due to my Atlantic Islander heritage. Lots of pastoralists in my genetic background. To wit, the Irish are said to drink a lot of milk, as well as eating potatoes. I also dearly love potatoes but do not eat so much of them as they make one fat. Sad but true.
