    Tell me a healthy meal I can make for the same 5 bucks that I can feed 4 people with by buying a red baron pizza.

      You’re not feeding 4 people on a red baron pizza and no one is getting fat from sharing one with 4 people. Fast food is expensive, and so is pre packaged meals. To many people get home from work and just eat shit instead of learning to cook.

      Steamed veggies are cheap, rice is cheap, beans are cheap, grab some seasoning and a pack of chicken breasts and you can eat good for a few days for less than a single trip to McDonald’s for 2 people now.

        I guess the dinner I served saturday night was just a drug induced hallucination then, afterall… You seem to clearly know what I do and have done better than I do.

          Cool, then everyone in your family must not be what they’re talking about in this thread since you probably don’t eat 5000 calories a day.

            Funny how the goalposts shift from “its easy and cheap to eat healthy” to “You’re not who we’re talking about, we’re talking about other, more convenient and strawmannable people”

              That’s not shifting the goal post, it’s calling out your bullshit that somehow a $5 red Baron pizza for 4 people is enough to make people fat. 380 calories is 1/4 of a red Baron Pepperoni pizza, if you ate one 3 a day, that’s less than most adults can survive on, you’re going to lose weight. So no I’m not the one moving some goal post or creating a strawman, that’s your doing.

                Literally no one said a red baron for 4 people will make you fat. I asked for a healthy alternative that can feed a family for the same exceedingly low price. Nothing more, nothing less. Certainly nothing to deserve your insane aggression and bullshit over.

                So now you are not only shifting goal posts, you are doing the classic internet bullshit of replying to your own imaginary idea of what people said.

                  No shit, that’s why I said you pointing this out was not the discussion at hand. You pointed it out that a $5 red Baron could feed 4 people, because healthy food is more expensive. I called that out as bullshit. This entire thread is about people who complain that it’s hard to eat healthy and not be fat.

                    … where you proceed to lose your shit and act like a cunt when someone asks how to provide a “healthy” meal for the same low costs as an unhealthy meal.

      Love how everyone is like “beans and rice!” and totally ignoring the energy and time it takes to make such things. And not everyone is a fan of beans and rice. At the end of the day being able to have a slice of pizza may be the only bright spot when you’re living paycheck to paycheck.

        and some combination of beans and rice is the only example they can come up with.

        Who wants to eat beans and rice every single day for the rest of their lives?
