you have conveniently ignored it. Cooking for yourself takes time.
You read only the first 2 sentences of my post, and accused me of ignoring something that I explicitly addressed and agreed with in the third. You could have saved yourself all of that time writing if you had just not, hypocritically, ignored most of my post.
There simply isn’t time for most poor people to spend much, if any, time cooking, because they often have so many other demands on their time. It’s not an excuse to eat unhealthy food, they just don’t have the realistic option to do otherwise.
You led with “it’s too expensive.” This was your primary point. Now, in multiple points, you focused on time. A point I’ve explicitly agreed with now twice (and now, twice, you’ve attempted to argue that I’m not making this point. I’m quite dumbfounded by this, actually).
It’s you who originally talking around the problem by focusing on price. I challenged your primary point because I believe (as I’ve seen it myself) people use it to justify their laziness. And I’m not talking about not having time or being exhausted, but simply throwing their hands up claiming it’s too expensive to eat healthy, and using that as an excuse to eat like absolute shit.
Except from the context we both realize that this is not what you meant, because you clearly separated out expense and time into two separate categories. If you meant expense to cover both time and what most people mean when they colloquially use the term expense, why did you repeat it?
We both know what you meant. Why are you trying to pretend otherwise?
Go ahead and tell me more about what I really meant and think, hmmm? It’s not even a very good attempt at gaslighting, and I’ve been gaslit by people that were much better at it.

I think that you’re talking around the problem.

“Expense” isn’t just money. Everything has a price. Everything. Some things cost more than a person can afford.

I’m curious to hear the explanation as to why you separated them out if they were both covered in one.
I suspect your claim of gaslighting is, as usual, a projection.
