What do you mean by nationalizing food? Between agriculture, making of food products, grocery stores, restaurants, etc...what would be nationalized?

All other items on this list I can understand, but I'm confused as to what nationalizing "food" would entail.

I think a good approach would be to create a nationalized not-for-profit option that the other chains would have to compete with. Maybe it wouldn’t have all the fancy stuff, but your bread, eggs, meat and produce would be cheap.

This would bring down prices all around and if you want to pay more for better stuff, you can do that at the private stores, and that’s where the capitalists can invest.
