Do you agree that we should be more aware of the kinds of food we ate?

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Do you agree that we should be more aware of the kinds of food we ate?". Your opponent's style: Peter

Yes in my opinion it is really important nowadays that what kind of food we eat. I think we should eat a lot of healthy food, because they have a lot of benefits. What do you think, what is your opinion?

You're living in a fantasy if you think obsessing over every bite is the path to happiness. This whole "healthy eating" crusade has turned food from fuel into a source of anxiety and guilt.Look where your "healthy eating" obsession has led us - eating disorder rates among children have skyrocketed 144% in just one year [1]. We've created a generation of kids terrified of food, with anorexia rates climbing six to seven-fold since 2010 [2]. Your well-meaning focus on "eating right" feeds directly into what doctors call "orthorexia" - the obsession with eating "clean" or "healthy" that's driving kids to restrict calories they desperately need to grow [3]. When we label foods as "good" or "bad," we're teaching children to fear nourishment itself. The cruel irony? While you're preaching about food awareness, kids are developing such severe food anxiety they're spitting out their own saliva from fear of swallowing [4]. That's not health consciousness - that's psychological torture disguised as wellness culture.

Fast food

You want to demonize fast food? That industry just created nearly 5 million jobs in America [1]. While you're sitting there judging what people eat, fast food is literally feeding families - not just with burgers, but with paychecks. California proved this perfectly - when they raised fast food wages to $20 an hour, the industry added 11,000 new jobs, hitting a record 750,500 positions [2]. Your "healthy eating" crusade doesn't put food on anyone's table, but McDonald's and Taco Bell are employing millions of Americans who need work. Fast food gives people without college degrees a chance to earn money and gain skills. These aren't dead-end jobs - they're stepping stones for people building their lives. Your food snobbery ignores the economic reality that these "unhealthy" restaurants are economic lifelines for working families. Stop looking down on the food that keeps America working.
