  1. I'll be honest I think the food boxes shouldn't be approved. All it does is cause a massive Chillul HaShem. It drives the food prices up in our local groceries. Also the amount of traffic it causes for a few gross items. Most of us don't eat half of the hechsherim. The milk sits out in the sun for hours. We don't need it.

    1. The food boxes are there to make a few people rich. It does nothing for us simple folk. Same is with the grants to the childcare facilities, just causes prices to rise.

  2. The food boxes should come back as prices are unaffordable at least let the middle class save some money on groceries

    1. The food boxes have helped me for the most part. Though there are some items I can do without.

    2. It's not saving the middle class.
      It's not even making rich those middle men.
      It's a quick buck for these companies who wait for opportunities to make a quick buck on analogies.
      This quick buck is at tge expense of all tax paying citizens.

  3. These boxes are the stupidest things ever 20 percent goes to the garbage 30 percent is cakes that I would never feed my kids another 20 percent are just expensive items that become a staple, and my wife starts buying them year round at inflatable prices, and for 30 percent it's just not worth it

  4. There are plenty of places in Lakewood that would take what you throw out from the food boxes and plenty of people who would take it. Don't complain about what gets thrown out because you don't want to do chesed with it

    1. Giving stuff to hoarders when they don't need it, is not chesed. I have seen people sit in traffic and drive across town for a "free" bag of frozen berries. The time and cost doesn't make sense. It's a sickness.

  5. Food boxes are one of the causes of inflation. So you save a couple of dollars in the summer, and pay way more throughout the rest of the year. Typical thought process for some people.

    1. How do food boxes cause inflation??

    2. They inflate your stomach

    3. Because the kosher manufacturers and distributors are selling millions of dollars worth of kosher food to the schools for the boxes, supplies become scarce for the regular grocery stores, and prices will go up. (Which creates a cycle of food inflation - prices don't just suddenly come down after the summer)
      SOURCE: I work in a grocery store

      PS I personally don't care, more food boxes equals more million$ for certain Yidden and Yiddishe schools. More food inflation equals more million$ for the grocery stores in terms of higher prices and more profit$. Its the little guy that loses out when food prices go up across the board.

  7. What an embarrassment that the developers and investors brought hundreds of families to live here in Lakewood who never heard of BMG and could not find it if they looked for it. How nice, that now they're getting tours.

    1. The irony. I remember when Oak&Vine parcels were zoned and sold for cheap, with the reasoning being we need more properties for the just married in BMG. If you want to know why BMG is building apartments, it's because the yungeleit got messed over many times by developers and investors.

  8. They should give vouchers that you can use in grocery stores.

  9. Not a smart idea to alienate your base by pricing them out from buying tickets while at the same time courting the chasidim. Just say it's about raising funds and not about putting the olam on a pedestal

  10. Why is adirei charging for tickets in the first place they should let everyone go for free
    Why should a father with 3 boys have to pay 600 dollars to go

    1. Who says you have to go

    2. They charge to keep the jerks like you out. They don't want your type with all your negativity and they know that you think everything is coming to you so by charging, you won't show and it'll be a win for all involved.
