I don’t know where to post this, so I’m posting it here.
I need to gain some weight because I’m borderline anorexic. But I can’t afford much more than bread, potatoes, eggs and cheese, That is my diet. And I hate eating it. It’s the only thing I can stomach that is cheap, but I hate it. I don’t want to eat eggs and potatoes for the rest of my life. I would rather die of malnutrition, like I am currently doing.
I have no appetite, but that is a symptom of something else. Ideally, there is a way to gain weight while eating less mass. Something calorie dense.
I might be slightly exaggerating. But for the last couple of years I’ve been eating potatoes and eggs for almost every single meal of the day. And yes, I eat one warm meal a day. Sometimes I suppliment with some bread to stop the hunger pains. Sometimes I also eat a piece of vegetable.
Doesn’t the Polish sugar tax only apply to beverages? I’m talking about buying raw ingredients and making cake or pancake with it, if you can afford eggs and cheese I can’t quite believe that you can’t afford the flour, sugar and fat/oil for a cake.
Does it? Everything that contains sugar got more expensive once the tax went into law.
Also. I never said I “can’t afford” these things. Just that they are expensive. I said I can’t afford a bottle of coke. Because the price will put my family in generational debt. Although my budget is about 12 cents when adjusting for currency. So I guess, yes, I can’t afford them. I am being fed and housed by family. I don’t get to be picky, I either eat what is given or not at all. And often I prefer to not eat.
That’s what the information says that I could find in a quick internet search, and it’s consistent with how the sugar tax works in other European countries like UK or Germany.
Is that 12 cent budget per meal or per month? Are the potatoes and eggs included in that budget or are those provided on top?
