Good food, in the Times’ rubric, isn’t processed, so choosing to consume these “comfort” foods in times of crisis is indicative of just how far you’ve fallen.
“One of the first things I grabbed was Kraft Easy Cheese. The disgusting orange stuff in a can. But it was one of the foods I ate growing up, so it’s a nostalgia thing,” said Hana Thompson, who works for a software start-up in Denver. “I also have a bag of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos that I haven’t opened. How long can I last and not eat those? It’s a low-entertainment game that I’ve been playing.
What this piece gestures at without saying outright is that eating processed foods regularly is simply a matter of taste. Good food, in therubric, isn’t processed, and healthy food isn’t either, so by choosing to consume these “comfort” foods only in times of crisis is indicative of just how far you’ve fallen. But what this piece misses—or actually refuses to acknowledge—is that Doritos are delicious, American cheese rules, and incorporating both into a well-rounded diet is not a moral failing.
