It's because a lot of the food we eat in this country is low quality food.

i dont get the 'dont have energy left to cook' everyone can talk about food recipes, food is probably the one thing EVERYONE has some knowledge about to discuss with to get ideas...there are PLENTY of poor uneducated people in other countries that eat very healthy and their standard of living is 1/4th of our 'poor' ... If have enough energy to order drive through you have enough energy to open a can of tuna or put some pasta in a bowl and microwave the water, or make eggs and eat the egg white, or turkey deli on bread is really really exhausting.. Most Veggies can be eaten raw or put in microwave for a bit...... why do other countries much poorer than our poor who have even less access to info and stores eat more healthy
