As as society, we're all agitated about dinner because we're trained to be by billions in ad spending. Part of that is a self loathing of one of the key elements of the dinner meal -- culture. Nothing is good enough.
My sister is a good example of this. She picked up a crazy, pain in the ass fad diet, has two kids and high powered corporate gig. Her husband is in a similar gig. The kids are in care from 7-7. So yeah, even buying a vegan, glueten free burrito is a pain in the ass. I worry about her, as she's going to have an anxiety attack someday.
