Endlessly frustrates me how much of the food economy is focused on producing cheap carbohydrates. This is perverse regulatory pressure.

Yeah, filling bellies to keep people alive really pisses me off too...

Cheap carbohydrates keep us fed and happy. What if I told you that not everyone needs to look like a fitness model to live a reasonably content existence?

Do they keep us happy? Or would depression rates be better if we had fewer cheap carbs and more quality calories?

Proteins and fats can keep us fed and happy as well. Also being healthier can keep lead to being happier.

70%+ of Americans are overweight, 30%+ are obese. We’re not at any risk of having too many people look like fitness models.
