My thought is those of who are "abundant" choose to eat fast food. But can choose to eat fruit as well.
Someone with a dollar to their name has limited choices.
I will stick with the abundant side.

To be clear, the "abundant" one has the true wealth.
|
|
|
No one has true wealth unless they savor it (like food).
Yet people who have true wealth have never experienced anything different. Old money is true wealth, new money can be gone in months. I guess it depends on your idea of wealth, and how you treat it.

Eat whatever you want. It's America. Free country. If you are a person of "abundance" you are most likely free, white and over 21. If you make choices that ultimately kill you, you are a patriot because at least you are helping to deal with the surplus population and supporting corporate food America at the same time.

I agree. We should eat the rich.

That's not exactly what I meant

That's not what I said!

Seriously, few poor people have access to healthy food. I grew up poor. Ninety percent of our diet was potatoes and white bread. Even in the best supermarkets, most of the food is unhealthy. When the only stores you have access to are Seven Eleven and AM-PM, you won’t have a healthy diet. I get a lot of my food from a little family farm stand. There are no fancy farmer’s markets around here. Also, if you follow most of the advice the medical community gives you, you will end up with obesity and diabetes.

Maestro is exactly right. The healthy diet that was recommended in 1977 is upside down and America has been paying for that mistake ever since. Eating a high fat diet has nothing to do with the cholesterol in your blood. It was a disastrous recommendation that has been responsible for an epidemic of obesity and type II diabetes

But check this out, many poor folks in developing countries are healthier than people in the western world. They make their meals.
If the poor here in the states did rice and veggies, they’d actually do ok. But nowadays people w no money have the convenience to buy fast food and it makes them feel like that food is “a lot” to them.
Personally I feel we can get way more food on a tight budget if we cooked. Ditch the packaged foods and fastfood, go to diamond ranch in DB where the veggies are 90% off and buy in bulk some grains and beans—instead of chips and soda.

I agree with the veggies, but not the rice. A high carbohydrate rice-based diet has s not healthy. Asian countries that have that diet have a higher rate of diabetes than we do in America and other western countries.

But but but... The China Study!

All grains are sugar and bad for you. A high fat, excluding trans fats and very low carb diet is what the human body is designed to be nourished by. We have been fed the wrong healthy diet recommendation for decades. Many health workers were educated with the wrong science

The fast food isn’t that bad if you stay away from the sugary drinks, deserts, potatoes and bread

Times have changed
and now the poor get fat.

From my experience the poor I have seen with a dollar spend it on a forty.
The wealthy I have worked for eat fresh cooked foods prepared in their functional kitchens.
It is those in the middle that are eating too many processed foods that get their flavor from salt.
