What should I choose from the buffet?

Question

Ok, so, what if there is a really big buffet with every food ever made there. Like, everything. So, what should I choose? Should I choose something really yummy that makes me feel good and just enjoy it? Or should I choose the dishes I don't like and say, omg, this place sucks and makes me feel bad 'cuz it has all these horrible dishes I don't like? All are available choices right in front of me.

Now imagine this buffet is called life. Should I choose to focus on something that makes me feel good for no other reason than I enjoy it? Or should I choose to focus on something that makes me feel bad 'cuz there are things in life that I don't like? All are available choices right in front of me.

And so I ask, What should I choose from the buffet?

"Now imagine this buffet is called life..." It doesn't work that way. Below is a brief scene from the rather good 2016 science fiction movie "Passengers". For context, Jim (Chris Pratt) and Aurora (Jennifer Lawrence) are two passengers on an interstellar colony ship that will take about 120 years to reach their destination. So, everyone is in hibernation in "sleep pods" so they will be asleep during those 120 years. Unfortunately, 30 years into the voyage, Jim's sleep pod opened erroneously and he could not go back under. After 2 years of loneliness, Jim causes Aurora's pod to open prematurely as well, but he doesn't tell her that (*). At the time of this scene, we learn something important - and my answer to your buffet question... Jim and Aurora are different classes. She is a Gold Class passenger. She has the best food available at her breakfast buffet. Jim isn't Gold Class - and not even near it - so his buffet choices are extremely limited to shit and more shit. BOTTOM LINE: Life's buffet choices are a lot better when you are rich. Most of us don't have much of a buffet in our lives. We're stuck with a choice between stale Pop-Tarts and cream of wheat.

The problem with the buffet is we all grab our most favorite thing, or things. And we filll the plate and eat every bite even lick the plate clean and it was so soo soooo good! Then tomorrow comes and we are hungry again so we get that same big plate and eat it...

Anyway a month later our favorite foods isn't good anymore and even though that buffet has ever food imaginable out favorite sucks now, so we try everything on buffet.

Eventually we are going to eat things we dont like just so what we do like we can enjoy again.

What you should choose depends on your awareness at any given point in time.

When I go to the buffet, I will start with sea weed because the high potassium helps me metabolize vitamin B and vitamin B is needed to digest carbohydrates and burn fat, then after I consume the sea weed, I will combine vitamin B1 with a source of fat so I can burn body fat, that is usually a green pea or pork meat capsule combined with some raw salmon with wasabi and soy sauce, I will also have the surf clams because I believe shell fish is very healthy if you are not allergic to it, and many are allergic to it and surf clams are very low in calorie. Then I will have some sea food and dairy comfort foods such as an escargot baked pie, or a shrimp and scallop baked pie, and then I move onto my grains. I might have some fried rice or some noodles or some chicken pad Thai, then I will combine my grain with a protein such as shrimp or beef or chicken, and then I will have some salad bar foods, such as some seasoned mussels, or some light weight veggies for fibre rather than taste, such as baby corn. I will then get other foods I enjoy such as cut slices of steak, or ham, or some roasted bell peppers with onions and an occasional fried pineapple in cinnamon.

It's a choice only you should make. Of course some dishes look better than they taste but this is the risk you need to take before you starve.

Life is less like a buffet where you get to choose from a wonderful smorgasbord and more like a hunter gatherer staring at a savannah filled with plants, herbivores, predators, and insects. You take whatever comes along. Sometimes that's fresh antelope meat. Sometimes it's a bland root vegetable you dug up. Sometimes it's fresh fruit. Sometimes you're running from a lion or leopard because you're on the menu too. And sometimes the locusts are looking good for lunch. We do what we can with the opportunities presented to us in life. We survive.

purplepoppy · Answer

I've been to countless buffets. Usually everyone brings a plate of something, sausage rolls, quiche, samosas, pizza, those pineapple and cheese on cocktail sticks. They all go pretty fast.

You know what doesn't go, what just sits in the bowl untouched? Salad. Because Salad doesn't make you feel good. No great story ever began with Salad.

The motto, we've all got something to contribute to life's great buffet, just make sues it's not Salad.

Or breadsticks cos their shit too.

So, the goal here is to maximise $ value of food per calorie. Eschew the breads, rices, pastas... beeline to the the seafood, cheeses, small goodsother proteins... as a general guide, the harder it is for you to reach, the better. Throw in a piece of fruit if you want to be 'healthy', I guess.

Sunrising · Answer

I would suggest you pick something that is good for your health for the starters, and the main meal. And perhaps choose something that is yummy for dessert 🍨.

Life is like a buffet. You know what you should and shouldn't do, and you know what you should and shouldn't eat. What you want to do or want to eat is not always what you should, and that's where you need to practice some self-discipline and restraint. Me at a buffet = out of control. It's a good thing I can only eat about half the amount of food that I used to be about to eat. I recommend the most gout unfriendly thing possible- Bacon wrapped scallops.

I went to a buffet where they had carving stations for ham, roast beef and Prime Rib. Also bacon and scrambled eggs with waffles and french toast. I do not have the capacity that had as a kid but i think I did myself proud.
