On a primal level I just find their content abhorrent.

Pretentious, wasteful and a perfect example of lovely white person culture.

I blame Epic Meal Time for the bacon on everything trend. I feel the bacon on everything thing is this weird food-related performative masculinity, cargo-cult manliness in which one's status as a man relies on an obsession with an unhealthy pork product.

If you really want to introduce someone to your fancy snacks, wait til their birthday or like christmas or something and just get them a little goody basket, or, more casually, offer them a chunk of whatever you're enjoying and if they like it, they'll be like "hey thanks for introducing me to that thing," because gifts are nice and random lectures about snacks are not nice.

I constantly scoff at my coworkers when they eat Jimmy Johns or some other swill-tier sandwich instead of ordering a Bari's Italian sub and paying a courier to deliver it to them. The other day I picked up a footlong Subway sandwich my coworker was eating in the break room, tore it up with my bare hands, and threw it directly into the garbage can in front of him and all the other employees. I told him how good Bari's subs were and if he wasn't going to respect himself enough to order one, then I wasn't going to respect him either. The other employees in the break room carried me out on their shoulders and my boss saw the whole thing and started clapping and promoted me right then and there.

Bari's Italian subs are really good.

Water and tea are the best, although tea will make you piss a lot.

I gradually made the transition to plain tea and water at work and I wasn't sure if the tea was hindering me at all so it's good to know it isn't :) I transitioned off of sugar with stevia, then honey, then nothing. Ive been drinking it straight for a while now. I prefer sweeter, dessert flavored teas but those are usually flavored with cocoa powder/beans, or dried fruits.

Someone else also mentioned short walks every few hours at work and that's another thing I've been doing but didn't know if it amounted to anything really beneficial. I know that any extra effort will burn additional calories but I wasn't sure if it really amounted to squat.

It's more that "bacon" as people typically mean isn't that great? When you see Epic Meal Time wrapping everything in fifteen layers of the stuff, it's not like they're buying good pork belly or something. It's these thin strips that just make it generically meatier and saltier. I'm pretty sure some of their concoctions in practice will just be overwhelmingly savory, like you can only eat a few bites before getting sick of it.

Unless you live with a bunch of health freaks, no one is saying you should only eat the finest Belgian chocolates. They more often than not are just sharing their totally insignificant opinion on a specific chocolate bar, to wit:

I don't get how someone can eat regular Hershey's and not taste bile. It's not some weird hyperbole, there is literally an additive in it that tastes sour. I don't care how snobbish it sounds, it's the only chocolate I've ever had that is worse than the prospect of not eating any chocolate at all. The cookies and cream version and the kisses taste OK for some reason.

American formula Cadburys is not very good but I got used to it after a while because I was tired of wasting my money on Lindt and Green & Black.

They use it because americans got a taste for vomit flavoured chocolate because chocolate companies failed to keep their milk fresh. When they could americans didn't like the weird new chocolate that didn't taste like someone had already eaten it and puked it up.
