I’ve met people who will actually argue against this but if your choice is between going hungry and getting fast food or snack food….PLEASE JUST FEED YOURSELF. It is 100% lying, evil, dangerous bullshit that some foods are “so bad for you it’s better to eat nothing.” It is never ever better to go hungry. Malnutrition is more dangerous, more immediately, and more long-term than any consequences of eating a damn twinkie or a cheeseburger.
I still can’t believe that two hundred years into its existence as a nation members of the US Congress said let’s pass budget law that says we have to pass a budget every year and if we fail to pass one we’ll simply stop funding crucial services to civil society until one is passed and everyone just went along with it
