No one in the Diet Wars ever seems to consider the psychological and physical cost of making the act of eating into a war zone. (Hey, you know what we DO have scientific evidence is Bad For People? Living under constant stress! Gee, I wonder if making every single interaction with food terribly fraught and dangerous is... really stressful to the bodies involved...) None of them seem to value positive sensory experiences, either.
Speaking as a depressed, chronically ill person with digestion issues: they can all go screw themselves. Food is for a) sustaining the body, which works differently with every body, and b) pleasure and social bonding, when possible. Not for finding yet another way to be miserable and Wrong.
