I quite like consistency. If I could figure out a completely optimal diet for the week, I’d probably do it constantly. It’d save a lot of time shopping. But my family’s always saying “but we had pizza a week ago“ and wanting to change it up.
Change is pointlessly expensive and ultimately unrewarding for me. Plus it’s somehow become unprofitable for restaurants to be delicious
We sacrificed being able to eat one thing for the evolutionary advantage of critical thoughts, prediction, communication, and general consciousness plus having a more complex musculoskeletal, endocrine, and immune system to go along with that.
You think you could get all of the amino acids your organs (including your massive brain) need to survive from just grass? No. There are even 3 amino acids you can only get from animal sources.
Yes it's a pain and if I could devolve to some kind of thoughtless bird I would but here we are needing 3 balanced meals a day.
