A Post Is Worth A Thousand Words
So its 5 in the morning, I've got another hour or two before I'll be tired enough to go to sleep, and I'm wondering...everything in the world seems to have its purpose fulfilling some sort of balance. Living things require water, so we are surrounded by it and it not only replenishes itself, but also purifies itself, on a regular basis. Our bodies shiver to warm up and sweat to cool down. Man + Woman = Offspring. We feel pain as a warning so we don't screw something up. So on and so forth.
But why are vegetables so out of the system? You'd think that the things that are normally the most nutritious things for us would be the things that we're wired to enjoy eating the most, right? Our body lets us know when we need food and it lets us know when we're stuffed. Spoiled food tastes bad. Fresh food tastes best. So why is it that vegetables like spinach are so commonly hated but so good for you, while something like chocolate is so bad for you but so tasty? Why don't string beans taste like Cheetos? Why doesn't a greasy bacon cheeseburger taste like cauliflower and vice versa? Sure, there are many people out there that really enjoy eating vegetables and tofu and all that, but not even remotely close to the majority of people fit into that category. Most people will go for a slice of pie before they'd go for a head of lettuce.
It just seems to me like the healthiest foods for us should be switched in the taste department with cake and cookies and everything that the average person enjoys eating exponentially more.
Massive oversight? Flaw in the chassis? Glitch in the system?
