Why do we always tend to eat food that is calorie dense?

Hacking. We like to pretend that we’re these magical independent things with autonomy and our own being, and that kind of thing… but in reality we are no more perfect that the computers we create… and no more secure. Corporations have long since learned that they can exploit hyper-normal stimuli to coopt vast swathes of the population into giving them money, so they do.
One way to see this is to realize that we don’t binge eat all calorically dense foods. Pecans are (exceptionally) calorie dense, when was the last time you ate a bag of those the way you’d eat a bag of doritos?
And this isn’t the only well-known and constantly exploited vulnerability in the human psyche either. Odds are you’re being exploited in all kinds of ways for the sake of the almighty, dollar.
