A bag of Doritos is ready to eat. The chicken breast and green beans have to be prepared and there are many factors why that may not be feasible for someone.

Celery and a low calorie dip is not exactly a healthy balanced meal, sure it's low in calories but it's low in just about everything and not really much better than a bag of Doritos.

You can buy pre-made chicken for the price of a bag of doritos.

Stop making excuses for people that lack self control

Some people just don't.

People with ED might have to eat food that they know will cause problems in the long term because the short term consequences of the alternative are catastrophic.

A lot of companies do not offer fridges or even any place to store food, the worker has to eat what the company offers.

Poor people often do not have the time or energy to prepare their own food as they often have to work twice as hard if they ever want to rise above the poverty line. The time it takes to plan, store the ingredients (and some don't even have the material necessities needed to store food) and prepare those supposedly cheaper fresh ingredients comes at the cost of not being able to work for that time. So it is often cheaper for the poor person to buy the seemingly more expensive processed food.

Sure, blame the sick for their illness.

Of we removed everything from this world that effected some in a negative way nothing would be left

what a thought-terminating sentence. We can't remove everything that affects people in a negative way so lets just stop talking about it. The worker who has to work in sickening conditions, the poor who can't freely choose if they want to live healthy, can't eradicate it so it's not worth thinking about. Anyway did you see that ludicrous display last night?

Why would I blame companies that have nothing to do with it?

Hate to break it to you but I was once poor too amd worked hard bringing home little money and I never resulted to a bag of chips.knstead of picking up real food to cook for similar prices.
