Macros. The basic nitty gritties of what food eventually breaks down to in my eyes.

For the most part, I am willing to eat most things because it fits my macros, I don't care much if it tastes "amazing" or not. This might be because my father made the most awful mystery food for me and my brother growing up. You learn to just choke it down and not whine.

My fixation with this topic stems from a comment I got this morning.

I mentioned heading to the market to grab some chicken breasts and salad greens. Bear in mind I'm in a living situation right now where food space is limited, as is kitchen usage time. So twice a day I've been eating chicken and greens, and propping up the carb numbers with oats and rice cakes.

The person I spoke to said "you can't just eat lettuce and chicken all the time."

Really? Why not?

Then again this was coming from someone who doesn't eat either of those things.

The point I'm trying to make is simply this: don't hate on the person who is eating right. Obviously I eat things other than chicken and greens, given the living circumstances I haven't exactly been able to make a huge variety of food.

But you know comments are sometimes like food, sometimes you gotta just choke it down, and move on.
