diet industry dropout = junk food industry chump They eat a higher percentage of high-profit-margin food with negligible nutritional value based on their poor impulse control and susceptibility to marketing techniques and seem to think doing so is empowering them as an individual rising above corporate consumerism. the existence of lentils alone is enough to discredit any cost/availability/time argument as they are ubiquitous, cheap, keep forever (and over a week after cooking), have ideal macros and go from stored to plate in 10-20 minutes.
