"how do we go about making cheap, convenient, healthy food on such a scale?"

We need people to stop worrying about "casual gaming at scale" and start worrying about "living a good life at scale".

It's just that, there's not usually as much profit in the solutions that actually work or matter.

I'm a healthy male in my 20's, I eat well and exercise regularly. I'd be PISSED if everyone stopped working on games and tried to solve all the eating problems of my friends because they're too lazy to do it themselves, instead of catering to what people who already try to live healthily want to do.
