“A lot of campaigning for food purity is a translated worry about abundance. You still eat your fill, but you agonize over the food’s contents. We are a pack of animals that allows some to have excess food while others starve. Those who have so much get finicky about what is good to eat; they become obsessed by it, re-creating scarcity for themselves so as to not feel guilty, confused, or dangerously envied.”
