I eat a pretty low carb (but not very low/keto!), high protein diet. Lots of vegetables, tofu, and chicken. I eat a head of cauliflower and two heads of cabbage a week. My broccoli bill is off the charts. But I'm also 210 lbs at 17% body fat so maybe my goals are different from most people's.

I usually use seed oils, in very small amounts (to get a pan going). I consume red meats infrequently (just not my favorite thing, idk im weird), but when I do, I totally use the fats from them to cook the rest of the meal.

Anyways, having been eating "clean" for a year, I always feel like shit after eating fried foods. Or maybe, I just notice that I feel it more.

Your farts are probably legendary.

Anyone know if eggs are officially good or bad for us this year? I lost track.

I mean my conclusion is people just plain don't want to eat in moderation, and really don't want to weigh things since it might hold their own habits accountable to them.

If fats are good and carbs are bad, it's the message people want to hear: do not moderate or change your habits, just eat as much as you want of the "good" thing because it's good!

> I mean, it could all be a psy-op by the animal agriculture lobby to get people to eat even more meat and less veggies.

I don't think you're wrong tbh, since before there was a big psy-op by the grain agri lobby to portray fat in a bad light, pushing for low-fat (but often high sugar/carb) and vegetable oil alternatives.

I mean for all these ones there's a grain (ha!) of truth, but the absolutist "X is bad for you" is definitely wrong. The core of every diet opinion seems to be "nothing in excess" / "you need a balanced diet". But that's more difficult than "eat only X" or "avoid Y".
