    I, personally, have been hungry in the past and eaten at McDonalds. After I did that, my first thought was “I’m an idiot, why did I do that?”

      That’s a nice story but it has very little to do with what I was asking. Have you ever faced the hard choice of continued hunger or cheap food? Can you envisage a situation where someone might have to make that choice?

          Ok, and do you have the choice? So, you could eat fresh, healthy food today if you choose to? Because if so, then that’s not the choice I’m taking about, is it.

            That’s literally the choice you described:

            what is realistic is an empty belly and a choice between unhealthy, cheap food and further hunger.
