Not sure if you’re straw manning intentionally so I’ll imagine the best: a misreporting of his words. Here they are:

> One winter when my roommate and I both were navigating our latest setbacks, we couldn’t make ends meet and we literally went hungry. There just was no money for food. We would go to the catholic food box donation center and they gave me a box, but I was vegan and the box was full of garbage Spam and Frank and Beans type stuff that I ended up just settting out on the curb. I would rather go hungry than develop health problems from filling up on ultraprocessed hydrogenated oil government peanut butter.

Being hungry isn’t starving, the way being out of breath is different from suffocating.

> Humans are omnivores, veganism is a choice

To understand his choice to not eat the box we might paraphrase him: "humans are natural whole food eater, not UPF eater".

It depends on what "human" definition is used: homo sapiens (biologie)? A poor American (context)?
