All I’m going to say is that there are a lot of misconceptions about what processed food means and this is just a part of the war on fat people. If we don’t systemically change our food availability systems and how society is structured these problems will continue to exist.
As a fat, never seen processed food as leverage in a “war” but more of a unhealthy convenience that can set a habit. Then again, I have food intolerances with highly processed foods so I avoid that stuff a lot.
I agree with the rest though. I cook from simple ingredients nightly, I just don’t eat healthy. A tomato is $3.99/lb at our close grocery store. Ground beef is $1.69/lb. What do I do when I need to pinch pennies? Ditch the fruits and veggies and load up on protein and grains. It’ll be great is plants were cheap again. Heck, I even saw dandelions in the produce section a month ago; literally selling weeds!
Yah, I understand nutrition. No, I don’t like my situation either. Tell my boss to pay me more and things will change. Ha!

But how will I keep my customers addicted to my food products?!?
