I'm assuming fast food or restaurant food? Some of us definitely agree with you.
Even just snacks, it was hard to find something that didn't taste toxic, sadly.
Here’s what is crazy to me. It’s cheap to buy a Payday candy bar which is peanuts and a shitload of sugar. But if you want an equivalent number of peanuts in a small bag without the sugar, it costs 3x more.
Let me just say I love an effing Payday. And recently I discovered this, which is kinda like a Payday if the center part was hollwed out into a tube and filled with peanut butter. So damn delicious.
I’ve had those! They are pretty tasty as a rare treat. Ironically, I used to treat myself to a Payday candy bar every payday when I was in my early twenties. That was my big splurge for the week, a Payday, a small bag of jerky, and a 32 oz Gatorade. Then it was back to bagged lunches, beans and rice for the rest of the week to make ends meet.
