I was saying just the other day how I suspect that, in the future, people will look back on what we ate now and marvel at how we basically ate poison every day. Insane amounts of sugar and simple carbohydrates, PFAS and microplastics in everything, highly processed foods, etc.

But with the state of society, so many people don't have the time or energy cook properly. Everything goes to work and other chores/requirements just to get by.
