A woman has taken a shot at Canada and its seemingly unreasonable food prices in a TikTok that has gone viral.
We are all feeling the pinch right now, prices continue to go up and never down and one woman seems to have had enough.
Sharing with her TikTok following, user theszabomargans, showed how dire things have gotten in Canada.

Warning against anyone considering moving to the country, the user insisted that the price of food is simply unbearable.
In a clip that has been viewed 6.9 million times, the Tiktoker showed just how much a box of chicken drumsticks costs at Costco.
“This is for anyone thinking of moving to Canada, our food prices are outrageous," she said in the viral video.

“Here we have a pack of drumsticks from Costco, $202 for this pack and $224 dollars for this one. Moral of the story don’t move here."
I love chicken as much as the next man, but you must be out of your mind if you think I am paying $200+ for it.
Social media users seemed to offer up their own explanation for the seemingly outrageous price. Many insisting it was likely a pricing error and that the Costco chicken would never cost so much.

“Are those maybe mispriced? I got a pack like that for 22$?,” one user wrote.
“Whoever has the job of putting those labels on either works very late or very early or they got rent due and trying to get them sales up,” another joked.
“Where the heck is that Costco? Baffin Island, Tutiutuk, Fort St.John? Same pack in Edmonton is maybe $20-30.00,” a third commented.
“I know it’s a misprint but it definitely feels like this when buying groceries here,” another added.
“Give me a break - I just bought those today. $22 is what I paid. Obviously those were mispriced,” a user wrote.

Which does make more sense, a simple misprint rather than the expectation you need to dig so deep into your pockets for some chicken.
This isn’t the first time Costco has gone viral on social media this week, either.
The bulk-buying encouraging supermarket has sparked panic after selling ‘emergency meals'.
For U.S. resident and TikTok user @CharminglyFrugal, being prepared means stocking up on food, seeds, tools and water in the event of some apocalyptic disaster that requires us to be self-sufficient.

The TikTok user regularly shares tips for end-of-the-world preparations, and last month she shared a video about some of the things Costco has to offer that could be useful.
In the video, the prepper shared the price details of 'emergency food' on offer at the store, including dried food that can be made edible with water, pouches filled with various meals, and freeze-dried ice cream sandwiches.
UNILAD has reached out to Costco for comment.
