Taking a carrot and eating it is faster, easier and more convenient that “fast” food. It can also be thrown around in a bag all day and still taste the same.
Same with apples and…
It is really easy to simply make the decision to not eat shit. You don’t need to be an 8th degree vegan to be healthier.
Getting a child to brush their teeth (or do it for them) is also a constant effort. So what? Just let them rot? Raising children well is not easy, we know that.
This is a weird argument. My kids eat carrots. I cut up the baby ones. They also eat chicken nuggets, hot dogs, corn dogs, grapes, apples, butter pasta, and a variety of foods. Simply saying eat a raw vegetable doesn’t really fix the issue.
You’re getting down voted because you’re suggesting eating the occasional raw fruit and veggie and writing like that’s a replacement for eating fast food. Maybe if you provided a recipe or a meal idea people would be more receptive.
While I did not write that, yes, people seem to think that. Replacing part of what we eat with something healthy is easy and cheap. Not a solution to everything. Not a complete vegan lifestyle.
Anyway, a recipe etc. is not going to change people. This is a more fundamental issue.

Okay, good luck trying to convince a child of that, or someone who’s in the junk food loop.
Just eating raw carrots also sounds like a miserable experience, you need to make healthy meals.

So we agree, it’s not easy…
I don’t know if you’ve somehow read my original comment as pro junk food, but it’s not.
So are we not allowed to change policies to make it easier?
Nice straw man you got there.

It is a super easy and first step to a more healthy diet. Not more and not less.
The part about “oh no it is so hard with children” was brought up by someone else.
Oh yeah, instead of this full meal I’ll just eat a carrot.
This is literally what I do. Of course, I am a bunny rabbit so maybe it’s different for people idk.
It’s so easy you guys 💁
Also: Exercising more? That’s easy too-- Instead of not doing exercise, simply do exercise instead.
Saving money, same thing-- Simply don’t spend it all and you’re good.
Okay, we’re on fire with these life-changing insights-- What pervasive personal responsibility problem should we do next?
The person argues that fast food is somehow cheaper. To me, it is far more expensive.
They say eating healthy is complicated. It is far easier.
I never said that switching to vegan is easy. But eating a carrot here and there, an apple, bla… is super easy and cheap.

I absolutely detest carrots.
Raw carrots are tough but I make a carrot apple shake with some cinnamon 'n shit and it’s delicious. Just Google. Super easy.
