I honestly don't get it. Explain this "insult" to me like I'm five.
Are they incapable of doing this for themselves?
Do they miss their mothers doing this for them?
Because it feels like they're telling on themselves to me.

Pt2 comparison #shopping for lean #groundbeef +other red meat choices.
Yes, ground turkey is a classic substitute, plus many meat alternatives are out there. And beans are always a choice. But people don't often even know #gamemeat can be found at regular grocery stores!

Ron and I respect our grandparent role, trusting Mom and Dad to know what's best for their child, just like we did for our son decades ago. I'm glad to see this is no longer a novel idea, especially when it comes to this

You don't have to drop a small fortune on making a good first impression. But the classic, basic moves are still winners.

I already don't take all that quickly to switching the names of famous places unless the locals ask me to (like Denali). But I thought of another problem to saying "Lake America"

Are you concerned about buying ground beef right now? I just might be passing on ordering burgers in the very near future! So here's an idea I've been doing for years now that you may not have considered because of price or flavor!

Just FYI, this is the crowd for an Iron Maiden tribute band. Plus about the same amount at the vendor tents selling vintage stuff.
Maybe our President should hire these folks for putting an event together 😌
