Do you mean government subsidized highly addictive, processed, junk food with predatory marketing pushed by gigantic multinational corporations? Do not shirk their responsibility in this. It’s not the average person’s fault.
100%. I did my undergraduate degree in public health, and one thing that I constantly saw about program development for nutrition and food subsidy programs was people thinking that the main issue to an individual getting proper nutrition was not having an education on how to cook or recognize nutritious versus non-nutritious foods. So they wanted to have stupid bullshit like nutrition classes for snap benefits. Where you wouldn’t get the benefits unless you took the classes, how fucking shortsighted and missing the entirety of the issue. As if a single parent who’s working two jobs is going to have the time to cook or even the time to grocery shop well.
It’s me or this is stupid and paternalist? What are “the poors” gonna eat then?
The rich at this rate

My problem is the whole “poor people eat poorly because they are stupid. I will force them to take the good decision”
