[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Different people are different.  Some people “survive” eating like that regularly be abuse they don’t feel what you felt when you ate what you ate. [/quote]

Or you know, what’s all they can afford / that’s all that’s in their neighborhood. [/quote]

Yeah because fast food is so cheap now.  :roll: (Nice try though)[/quote]

Still cheaper than buying salmon, salad, and rice from even the cheapest of grocery stores....and obviously fast food fills you up and is satisfying (unlike, say, a lighter healthy meal).[/quote]

No it isn’t. If you make your own meals at home, you’ll know it’s so much more cost-effective than the crap available outside.[/quote]
Agreed[/quote]

at McD’s in DC with the app you could get two cheese burgers (or mcchicken) for $3.50 and $1.20 for large fries and $1.40 for large soda, so just under $7 with taxes included. I’m curious what you could make with $7 in DC area?[/quote]

Black lentils at whole foods are 3 bucks. It could last you a while instead of a 1-time reflux inducing meal.[/quote]

cooked or raw?[/quote]

Black lentils take about 20 minutes to cook. I'm making some tonight for a gathering and I'm going to add some pickled beets and goat cheese and coat the black lentils with my homemade black garlic and basil dressing. [/quote]

Did you do physical labor all day?
Did you work more than 10 hours and feel too mentally exhausted to do anything?
Do you have a car to go shopping?
Or do you live walking distance from a store that sells healthy food?
Do you have a home with a nice kitchen that you have time to clean?
Do you have dishwasher to wash the dishes you’ll use?
Were you raised with enough money so that your emotions about it don’t cause you to be foolish with it?
Same question but substitute food for money?
Do you have so much stress about money and health and safety and feeling disrespected by the world that your energy for planning and self-care is totally depleted?

Honestly, the way many of you are discussing the good choices of people who are poor is what I would expect of a high school student or child.  Are you honestly not able to see the many ways in which people’s lives are different than yours?  Unless the person who posted what is posted above is 13 years old, there is no excuse for her.  From now on, if I catch myself being arrogant or self-centered, I will mentally refer to it as a “black lentil and basil dressing moment.”[/quote]
