That's too funny... people on a $5/day food budget don't buy
shallots... whatsamatter, Ms Champagne Taste, ordinary onions ain't
good enough for your beer pocketbook... well la dee dah, may as well
pick up a little basket of mushyrooms to go with those shallots,
there's goes nearly your entire $5/day budget and you didn't eat yet.
