Real food is cheaper.
I dunno what to tell you. It's been a thing since I worked a retail job as a kid and was warned to advise management if someone was buying "a lot" of cat food and seemed poorer than average. Found an article. It's one of those things where there were PDAs about it in the 80s, there's articles of it happening during the pandemic, but I'm not finding any scholarly articles.
Probably hard to get someone to admit to.
"real" food is cheaper, but also has to be cooked and can't sit on a shelf for 15 years and still be edible.
This is why stuff like spam continues to be sold, it's cheap and easy and lasts forever.
When someone talks about cat food the real alternative is food like SPAM. And SPAM IS cheaper than cat food. Buying cat food to eat is an expensive enterprise, thus the original point is false.
