  I know folks, my boss and his family, who - if it doesn’t come from a box, powder, and/or plastic bag, will not be eating it. It’s really sad and I eat whole food in front of him all the time in hopes…

    I had a relative once say that she’s vegetarian, won’t eat animals. I point out the chicken she’s eating and has always eaten, and she says “It’s from the grocery store, not an animal”. We had to have a long chat. People too divorced from real food and its sources, have some weird assumptions.

      The staunch vegetarian stance of not eating anything you yourself killed

    My friends mom has been trying the opposite- shes trying to avoid buying any plastic packaged food. Not so much out of concern for microplastics, but as a way to reduce her environmental impact.

    Its also helped her eat much healthier- most candy is out, all her veggies are fresh instead of frozen, fresh meats instead of prepackaged ones, etc.

      Now don’t go hate on frozen veggies, they did nothing wrong

        A weirdly large amount of people seem to think frozen foods or persevered foods in general are all evil and will kill you. Like ALL of it.

        Like fucking salted meats and refrigeration are a god send. People are fucking stupid.
