"Trouble is, the movement is a wholly classist phenomenon—or, in the words of one of my students who grew up in inner-city Detroit, "Clean eating? That's some rich white people shit."
'Deweese says she hates the term clean eating. "It's a social status thing. It's more about 'I'm better because I eat clean,'" she says. Adds Scott-Dixon, "'Clean eating' is a preoccupation of people who, in socioeconomic terms, really don't have any real, legitimate worries. It's a first-world problem."'
Hopefully you all learn a valuable lesson from this article (if an user could archive it for me that would be great), but I really hope this inspires you all to stop being selfish and thinking only of yourselves when you buy fruits and vegetables.
But I thought blacks were all able cooks who mastered the spices while white people ate dirt and cold macaroni?

No one is stopping you from buying some containers or lumber and building planters. Grow your own damn nutrition to supplement your garbage intake. No one is forcing these people to eat like this. I've seen middle class white families who exactly like that photo. Garbage in, garbage out.
Kevin Myers
The only reason why blacks have "good food" is because they throw a LOT of spices in it. You can't even taste the food, all you get are the spices which is what makes it good. They don't have enough skill to spice it a little and cook it properly so it tastes great. They literally douse everything with some kind of spices. NIGGERS

>the 'I can only afford fast food because I'm poor' meme
To me, this really shows that the principle of meritocracy actually seems to work pretty well, because this clearly indicates that the poorest people in society also tend to be the dumbest.
You can absolutely eat healthy on a tiny budget. As a matter of fact, eating lots of fast food is actually a lot more expensive than buying healthy ingredients with a good $/calorie ratio and cooking yourself.

Why are niggers so fucking obnoxious?
Chase Price
I'm poor and eat Soylent, I save money on toilet paper, dishes, food etc. I'm also losing a lot of fat.
I only do it 4 days a week at work (12 hour shifts with no breaks, food industry) and I've saved easily $45/week because I don't eat fast food or gas station food. It's not for everybody but holy hell it makes you realize how retarded people are. Even if I wasn't doing the soy slime I would have saved a killing just not eating out.
Niggers are retards.
Austin Brown
You are correct of course. For me it is sometimes gives me headaches that there are people who think buying a bag M&Ms for a few dollars would be cheaper then buying pounds of vegtables for one buck. The very idea behind it is absurd yet some people still believe it youtube.com/watch?v=VpPDVqMltx8 Also >Seitenbacher intensifies
Oliver Brooks
The article is shit but it makes fun of people who think they're healthier for buying overpriced Whole Foods shit and acting holier than thou about it.
You can eat cheap if you find farmers markets or buy bulk staples and cook.
I've stopped eating fast food and cook at home and eat high protein and count calories. Not fun but it helps me lose weight and be one of the few non obese Americans. Also love seeing strength gains in the gym by not trying to out train a shitty diet
Chase Lee
People also don't understand how much meat they need to eat.
Even if you don't want to go vegan, you only need 3oz of meat at a serving if that's your protein.
That means a pound (16oz) of chicken breast last you 5 meals, with half a cup (precooked) brown rice, then you need some type of seasonal green + spices.
National averages $3.18/lbs chicken breast $0.36/ 1/2 cup brown rice $0.63/cup broccoli $0.52/cup spinach
10 meals=(3.18*2)+(0.36*10)+(((0.63+0.52)/2)*10)=$15.71 / 10 meals / $47.13 for 10 days / $141.39 for a month
Add in the cost of almonds or pistachios and some cheat days if you want them and you're looking at

Its obvious msm has given up on whites. they are too smart to fall for buying all the stupid shit they sell on tv. so what would you do? thats right you would cater to the people that do fall for it. this is just evolution. it may feel like your country is abandoning you if you base your life off of tv values but this is just evolution. the blacks will get wise in a generation or two as well.
Charles Flores

Isaac Long
to be fair spices are how the food gets good. Why do you think it used to be the absolute largest trade commodity for hundreds of years? theres only so much protiens in the world and they all end up tasting bland eventually, even beef needs salt and pepper.
Jaxon Davis
the reason they dont eat well is because it doesnt taste as good. end of story. the conspiracy the media tries to propagate is that you cant eat well if you are poor and preferably black.
Jonathan Wright
Been eating organic for the past 4 years , it does not have to be expensive to eat healthy and clean food without pesticides and chemicals. most of you will never realize because of your programming. if organic produce is too expensive go out aand grow your own food you lazy fucks
Ethan Hall
Story time!
>Be me, working at Wal-Mart >Old fat white guy comes through my lane >Buys nothing but giant hunks of meat and several cases of Dr. Pepper. >Like that's ALL he bought. 25 lbs of beef and 96 cans of Dr. Pepper >Very next person is a well dress black woman >Buys nothing but fresh vegetables. Every kind of leaf and sprout we carried. >Almost said "I want to go to your house tonight." but I was too beta back then.
The contrast between the two was striking. Each person's bill was around $100. I think hers was a bit cheaper. Moral of the story: Anybody can buy anything. Clean eating is not racist.
Ayden Evans
kek labeling 'clean food' as racists. It's the bankers and investors who push the media to keep you eating their fast food and prepackaged instant meals. truth is, 'clean food' (aka food cooked from raw ingredients) cost less and is healthier
take the 1958 study that started the (((fat free))) high sugar trend and see how that boosted obesity rates
it's all about profit to the investors because it benefits the bankers who use the media to push their agendas

They already have an excuse for you tell them this. They talk about food dessserts. I've never lived in the inner city, but I can see food markets in Highland Park Detroit. And even if they do live in food desserts, convenient stores still sell containers of oatmeal and canned beans. There really is no excuse.
Nathaniel Clark
Fat free is indeed merchant trickery, or at least merchant influenced.

clean eating, as in sticking to good sources of carbs, protein and some veg/fruit, is not only healthier but can be even cheaper than a junk food/fast food/soda based diet.

This 'story time!' Bullshit is absolute cancer. Fuck off with it
Dominic Lewis
The reason most people don't eat clean has nothing to do with price or convenience. The reason people don't eat clean is because most people don't know how to cook. It's really that simple.
Hunter Rogers
>To me, this really shows that the principle of meritocracy actually seems to work pretty well, because this clearly indicates that the poorest people in society also tend to be the dumbest.

At what point were you going to refute his argument about meritocracy?

Jacob Cooper
you're cherry picking quite possibly the most expensive fast food meal possible. You could also buy TWENTY double cheeseburgers at McDonalds for $20, and have 10,000 calories off of $20. Probably about 5x as much as your "or" photo.
Brody Brooks
God damn fucking kikes! absolutely haram
Oliver Lewis
how can you even afford this shit? its like 500$ worth of food
Blake Long
I don't know where you are finding 2 pounds of chicken breast for $2, or milk for $2 a gallon. 2 pounds chicken breast costs $10 in any reasonable city, and milk will be $5-6 a gallon. Everything else on that list is about 50% less than actual prices, even in rural areas.

Levi Powell
I'm sure there is a middle ground between 'only living off oats' and only eating fast food, user.
If you know how to cook even on a basic level there are many healthy, tasty and cheap dishes that you can prepare in a short period of time.
It's understandable that people who have multiple kids/jobs/whatever have an incentive to choose convenience over a healthy diet, but it's wrong to suggest that eating at least somewhat healthy is some herculean task that only the ruling classes can afford.
Jeremiah Campbell
you mean that's spice with food added.
Austin Howard
this is a fallacy you need oil,pans,mixers,salt,pepper,oven,trays in order to prepare food in the first place most healthy foods can't be made by just popping it in the microwave
Oliver Fisher
the simple matter is that outside of rice and beans, "cleaning eating" foods are about 50 calories per dollar, while "unhealthy" foods approach 500 calories per dollar, or even more, plus actually eat like you're not an African refugee, while still needing to work like a drone in western society.
Just buy simple foods, don't bother with that organic shit. Chicken, rice, eggs, fruits, veggies, spices, etc. If it comes in a big colorful box with a fancy brand name, ignore it completely. If it comes "already made" it's pure garbage. Stop being stupid and lazy and just eat good food.
Isaac Gutierrez
Michelle Obama has quite literally been one of the most active advocates for clean eating. Is it -just now- racist because Obama's no longer in office? What kind of fucking morons are writing this shit?
Ian Jenkins
>When the german user is on point
Abso-fucking-lutely. You can buy fresh meat and veggies for the same as fast food, poor people are just lazy and stupid.
Levi Gutierrez
A lot of times people try to eat "healthy" by buying a bunch of out of season shit or worse "health foods" that are the same items with a green label, a different font, and a higher price tag. >food deserts Think about your average grocery store, the open aisles, the low amount of employees per square foot, the rows of registers, it's basically a nightmare scenario for a shopkeeper to keep safe and operational in a ghetto, most of the ones that do exist there have armed guards. Also despite the "we wuz cooks!" memes black families are going to buy a much less diverse set of items than white families are, and most of those items are junk food available at a gas station. It's not that blacks don't have money for groceries, the EBT card takes care of that, it's that they don't WANT to buy that shit and no amount of white liberal whining is going to make Big Mama want to try some kale.

it is indeed, fat is a cleaner source of energy for our brains than sugar. Vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat soluble. refined sugar is nothing but a form of cheap and quick energy.
>The reason people don't eat clean is because most people don't know how to cook this. Eating clean isn't about choosing (((organic))) It's about cooking a meal with raw ingredients without all the added sugars and salts that fast food and instant meals come with
read the ingredients of any instant food and you'll realize it's jam packed with multiple different forms of sugars and salts. Ingredient renaming and marketing is all to jedi mind trick you into believing your instant food is healthy

I love looking at what people buy when I'm in the checkout line at the grocery store. I check out the people, their purchases, and make assumptions about their lives based on what I see.
Gives me something to do while waiting in line, other than reading the buzzwords on magazine covers.
Brandon Clark
Maybe if OP and others would actually read the article instead of a carefully selected portion of it, they're realize that "clean eating" is not simply healthy eating, but an obsession with "organic" products (most of which are anything but) grown or raised in an ethical manner.
It's basically the fucking kale-eaters that're being criticized here, you fuckwits. Know who else doesn't read shit before opening their mouths? Niggers. Don't be niggers.

Camden Brooks
But healthy food is literally cheaper than junk food
Adrian Jones
the concept that food is not inherently healthy or unhealthy is completely lost on 'muricans
Thomas Williams
the caloric difference in dollar between heatlhy vs unhealthy is negligible when you weigh the nutritional difference between the two
vitamins help you metabolize energy and use the food you eat to rebuild your cells. without these important nutrients, you will feel exhausted despite eating more calories. the point of it all is to keep the wage slave, a wage slave so they convince you fast food is cheaper and 'a calorie is a calorie'
Chase Evans
Eating clean is a bunch of bullshit anyways.
Cooper Torres
>get bed, bath, and beyond coupons in the mail

Oh my mistake, it will totally cost $9 more to de-bone chicken. Have a look at the price of milk and realize that the difference in price is largely inconsequential.
Mason Gray
Fair enough, user. If you're so poor that you can't afford cheap pots and pans and some salt & pepper you are going to have a hard time preparing your own meals.
But how many people are really in that position? Unless you are actually homeless guy kind of broke you should be able to get your hands on the most basic kitchen equipment.
That's not to say that there aren't people unfortunate enough to be in such a situation, but most 'poor' people are more than capable of affording that.
Ryan King
>pans Buy a used one. You need only one. 5 dollars max
>salt, pepper, oil Whats this? The dark ages? That's like 3 dollars as long as you are not some hipster retard who needs sea salt and virgin olive oil from Italy.
You people are really fucking stupid and extremely bad with money.
Ryan Lopez
And most of those things are easily affordable if you don't spend your money on junk food or soft drinks, which many low income people do. If you have 5 kids and you're "living paycheck to paycheck" or "just scraping by" maybe the Pepsi and Doritos shouldn't be on the shopping list.
Also like said, if you buy store brand in bulk it's entirely possible to feed a family healthy meals on a meager budget. The problem is a lot of niggers are hardly practical with their food stamps.
Michael Price
>2 pounds chicken breast costs $10 in any reasonable city
Maybe in a socialist vegan commune. If you are paying anything more than $1/lb for chicken you are getting ripped the fuck off.

my parents oven broke down a year ago, and they are too poor to replace it. Also, their sink broke 3 years ago, and it will cost $1k plus to fix, so they don't have running water in the kitchen. Kind makes cooking and cleaning 10 different pots difficult just so you can get some rice and beans. Situations like this are common among the poor, who are may at one point had more utilities, but are too poor to replace them when they inevitably break.

I don't understand how people claim eating healthy is expensive. It's not rocket science. Buy fruit and vegetables of the season, grains and legumes, cheap meat like chicken and fish if you live by the sea. Don't use oil/butter to fry shit and just like that you are now eating healthy. Every fucking poorfag buy more soda and packaged sweets in a week than I buy in 10 years.
