Eating when food isn't tasty

Why don't we take a bite of food and if it tastes like cardboard, don't eat and throw it away?

    I do that. Especially on days when my calories are close to my daily max. I'm not wasting 200 calories on a cookie that tastes like crap.

    Why are you eating things that taste like cardboard?

    600 calories of cardboard a day seems like a terrific plan! More power to you.

    Cardboard doesn't fit my macros. I go for beer instead.

    I ate a bowl of freezerburned vegetables tonight. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

    What's up with the forum-bombing flame threads, OP? I think this one's a sinker.

    There are a few reasons. One is that we're pigs. 2 is that we eat so fast, we don't taste. 3 is that we are so "hungry" anything will fill the void.

    I quit eating stuff that tastes like ****. I don't mind eating cake or pizza or any of the good stuff/ but it needs to be GOOD stuff.

    You can still eat delicious food while having it be healthy & fit your macros. Don't eat something that doesn't taste good because you think that you 'need to' in order to be healthy!

    This troll is very hungry to be eating 600 calories of cardboard.

    I feel like giving a serious answer despite the obvious troll thread.

    Sometimes I eat things that are sub-par because 1) I need whatever the nutrition is in my day 2) I don't like to waste food 3) I'm not a good cook and I'm not going to waste food AND do it twice when I make something that sucks and 4) Poor planning- it's what's there or 5) any combination of the above.

    None of those *we* reasons implying that I'm a pig that can't control what I put in my body.
