    For a lot of people in America, a lot a lot, all those people whom I am talking about, there is no such choice.
    They’re in food deserts, they’re overworked to death, they don’t have skills, they don’t have equipped kitchens, they don’t have time to cook, they don’t have energy to do it.
    It’s a bootstraps problem. How can I work good job and can happily spend an evening cooking a nice meal, but half of Americans can’t? Well, obviously because they’re lazy and probably stupid. Not because of the enormous privilege I have, one so big I can’t even recognise the problems they’re facing.

        I don’t feel like I’m getting through you, but I recommend you watch this video, https://youtu.be/V-a9VDIbZCU. It’s about very related problems, and the host explains the problem I’m describing in an entertaining way with visual examples.

        Well, I don’t recognise a problem, it probably doesn’t exist then.
