1. I just finished reading "Nickled and Dimed" by Barbara Ehrenreich |
|
Many of the places she lived in during her experiment didn't have a fridge or something to cook with, so much of what that girl in the video bought would not work in that type of situation. At one point Ehrenreich receives food from some sort of agency, and she laments about the ham that they give her that she will have to eat in one sitting because she has no refrigeration in her room.
