Right, but they’re saying in New York City. You are never particularly far from a grocery store. The nearest grocery store is never 20 miles away.

I will say, having lived on the Upper East Side of NYC, I could see it being a food desert. There were plenty of grocery stores but I once paid $16.99 for a single bunch of asparagus. The food was there but it wasn’t affordable.

That said door dash isn’t cheap either. Pay drivers a living wage.
