What I have had for the past 48 hours are as follows: both breakfasts consisted of Fiber One cereal with milk and a glass of water, the first lunch was a hamburger from a burger joint, the second a pizza accompanied by a rice and bean dish, the first dinner was a calzone and the second consistef of pita and hummus as well as some microwavable dumplings (I was still full from the large lunch). With the snacks that were incorporated between meals which were anything from cookies to cold cuts of salami to bananas which puts my estimate for the number of calories very close to 3000. I have a fast metabolism and I like to eat, what can I say. Not like I have to worry about my weight.
The foods I like very much usually contain a fair amount of salt, I noticed this especially in the foods I ate in the past 48 hours. As for the liquids its usually milk or water, except during a typical lunch I'll buy a soda. As much as I try to avoid them its hard to find a cheap alternative, I just feel too much of a sucker if I payed for water.
As I wouldn't like to admit it this is probably what the average person would eat, something that is salty or sweet (unless they're really gross and mix those flavors). We eat these because we get a certain pleasure from eating those types of food, so much that food for a long time would usually contain alot of sugar, and when we got even greedier and wanted more sweets we now grow ridiculous amounts of corn to make corn syrup (among other things) out of the crop.
So it's no wonder McDonalds is more successful than green market when they offer sugar paste on chicken scraps its so good!
