Yes, if we know nothing about food except for its price, it's reasonable to chose based on price. But do you really think that's true? There's no credible basis

Yes, if we know nothing about food except for its price, it's reasonable to chose based on price. But do you really think that's true? There's no credible basis for selecting one food over another based on its nutrition?
I wonder if this is the point of much of the smoke blown into nutrition research by Big Food. People get so confused they think wtf, if the big brains can't figure it out, how am I supposed to. I'll just buy that, it's cheap and tasty.
- CamTin 8y agoDo I really think that the rational thing to do is always only eat the cheapest food? No, I don't. I was reacting to the premise, which is that all diet advice is as likely to be correct as any other. This is clearly a false premise.
