[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I trust any food I buy in US. I don’t trust any restaurant, anything I buy in the store. Maybe farmers’ market and it’s a big maybe.

Even when I buy a wild salmon filet from Costco, I wonder it has been drenched in something chemical or if the plastic packaging leaks endocrine disrupting chemicals into the food.[/quote]

How will you explain our food supply problems when our US fed olympians dominate the gold count this summer? And, a huge percentage of those athletes are amateurs cranking through on their own well before they get sucked into games prep by our Olympic program. Where do you think they get their food? Some super secret store in Omaha Nebraska?

The dumb things people come up with to explain away their own laziness is amazing. Eat real food. There is plenty of it in the US. And particularly here in the DC area. [/quote]

I guarantee you Olympic trainees are eating far better than the average American. Even before they're headed to the Olympics. 
Did you ever consider that those who generally eat and exercise better are more inclined to become Olympic athletes?[/quote]

Jesus. You are making the same point.

Anybody can eat well in the US. Did you even read the idiocy of the post I quoted? I will help you with this delicious quote of stupidity: “Even when I buy a wild salmon filet from Costco, I wonder it has been drenched in something chemical or if the plastic packaging leaks endocrine disrupting chemicals into the food.”

The premise of all these threads is the US food system is so broken it’s impossible. That of course is nonsense. Including that we have a huge Olympic team that gets along buying their own food, training themselves, and many times working full time jobs. Just like all of the rest of us.

The issue is people don’t want to eat well. Even wealthy people. Because it requires not eating garbage that they want. That’s why it’s there. There is a market for it. Instead of recognizing that, it’s all one big external conspiracy where nobody has any responsibility and somehow big pharma is in on it. [/quote]

Poor people can’t “eat better”, it’s too expensive [/quote]
