Young people today have no sense of perspective or responsibility… said every person over 40 in the history of the planet. But this time, those geezers are right, at least when it comes to the amount of money Millennials are spending on food.

Yes, a study has proven that people between ages 15-35 are spending more money than they can afford on local, artisinal, gastro-innovative restaurant food. And then they’re taking photos of it, and posting it to Instagram to annoy all their friends.

Millennials are super-interested in food, especially if that food comes with a hearty side of buzzwords. Whole Foods noticed the younger generation’s interest in Organic free range sea salt, and that’s why they’re planning to open a new line of stores that caters more to the under-40 person’s budget (https://goo.gl/ujChDN), but a lot of the younger market doesn’t care, and is eating their way into the poorhouse. That, or they're giving away tons of personal information for a $1 off coupon on microbrewed cream soda.
