    I’m not referring to my current situation. I’m adding context to their question.

    I’m fully aware that someone can put stuff like that in their car.

    However, when I was working in a factory til 11 pm, I don’t want cliff bars and peanut butter.

    I understand what you’re saying. Not everyone has those options, whether you want to believe it or not.

    People are a kaleidoscope. There is no single way to live or fix your problems. This is information I hope you too can use.

      I’m glad he not in this situation now and for sure, sometimes you just need protein and want something hot, I get it.

      When I was in that situation there were def days when I’d hit up Jack in box, with my very specific order, knowing 100% full well that I could do this once a week and not go into the red. I tried to avoid it, but sometimes the body wants what it wants.

      And absolutely, I wasn’t adding to offer an end all solution, nor do I think one exists, just to elucidate other options for either yourself, but mainly for posterity and those who potentially stumble upon this down the way

      I think we all might do well to assume our internetting will outlive us, which no one could really know and I doubt it will, but it might and I think pascals wager here might be prudent, but that’s just one of many takes im sure.
