I understand the time-saving aspect of this product. I understand that one's schedule can be so intense that taking the time to cook & eat is impossible, though I posit that the mental down-time offered by meals is beneficial to better process what we're thinking about throughout the day (disclaimer1: I can't back this up with data as I only have anectodal evidence).
But the real issue I have is diet monotony. We live in an era of convenience and have forgotten about how fruits and vegetables yield their harvest in seasons. When most fruits/vegetables are in season, you might eat volumes of them, then never eat any for the rest of the year. Some indeed can be kept for a few weeks/months.
The same is true with meats: larger animals would be consumed on a less frequent basis than smaller ones.
Disclaimer2: I'm not a nutritionist, I just enjoy traditional foods.
- widdma 10y agoAs an aside "nutritionist" is not a legally defined term. Any quack can call themselves a nutritionist. Some may have had some training, but it's not necessary science based or complete. On the other hand, "dietitian" is a registered and regulated profession of which practitioners have a recognized university qualification. TLDR: be skeptical of nutritionist.
