No mental gymnastics because I don’t have orthorexia nervosa. There’s no guilt or shame. (None that aren’t universal to all consumption under capitalism, anyway)
Also, if we’re going to start shifting blame to capitalism, please tell me how your ideal system of governance would manage to get the current 98-95% of individuals who are consuming harmful and unethical foods to change? Corporations have a lot of blame for the toxic food environment and food deserts to be sure. But also in the case of the food industry, their harmful practices are driven by consumer demand for the most addictive, hyperpalatable foods. Nothing can change without enough individuals choosing to do better.
