Agree, hence my weakness unfortunately. But I certainly try.

Would you make exceptions for, say, meat/dairy from local farms? I’m with you about the industries, and I try to supplement with locally farmed stuff as often as possible, but I’m also weak of constitution.

I think the boiled part was a joke to add to the otherwise pedestrian meal. And no hate on macheesyfingers, it’s just not some culinary extravagance.
