Food fighting

You know, people really want there to be "good" foods and "bad" foods. I think it must be rooted in an intense need to have an enemy, to demonize something. The reality is that humans are the rats of the primate world; we can extract nutrition from a stunning array of foods, even from what is basically garbage. We are highly adaptive omnivores who can not only survive, but thrive on a wide variety of diets. People hate this for some reason; psychologically, we need boundaries. We need rules. We need "good calories" and "bad calories". Even when a researcher comes along and tries to tell us, "Wait, no; that's not how it works", we insist on twisting his meaning to support our diet religions. We demonized meat and fat ten years ago, and now we demonize grain. Listen; it's simple. Eat a wide variety of whole fresh food, and go outside to play. Your body might not like some foods that other people's bodies like; and that's OK. That doesn't make you wrong and them right, or you right and them wrong. Just eat something else. And, GO PLAY.
