I buy exactly what I will eat for the week, and eat it all. I don’t waste any food. At the end of seven days, my refrigerator is nearly empty, except for things that last me more than one week, like milk.

    I’m almost the exact opposite, if I have the same meal two days in a row I’m not going to want it again for a couple of weeks.

    I know it’s kinda against the spirit of this community, but if you reject enjoying the sheer variety of food this world has to offer, I can’t help but feel you’re missing out on one of the greatest joys of life.

    I’m curious do you not get cravings for stuff? I know I’m deficient in B-vitamins if I’m suddenly craving Marmite, for example

      As someone who loves food, I agree with you.

      Food is my #1 carnal pleasure, and I like to have meals that are varied in taste and in texture. When I visit a foreign country, the biggest joy of the trip is sampling their food, and experiencing all the local flavours.

      But, I understand that isn’t the same for everyone. For some people food is just fuel, and they’d rather spend their energy on other things which matter more to them. I can’t agree with that, but I do respect it.

      I am wondering that too, it must be a very well rounded meal. When my body tells me “go eat that” I take it as a sign that I really need some stuff.
