- Don't eat out.
- Buy staples and spices and learn to make tasty dishes from them. Pretty much every culture on this planet has figured out super tasty and nutritious dishes from the staples that are available to them. Learn from them. (This will take time, as in it's a long term goal, but it's so worth it.)
- Don't buy processed products of any kind. Pre-processing terribly bad ingredients for convenience is how the food industry takes your money. Buy real food.
- If you can, don't buy meat. If you can't, buy as little as possible. It will be better for you, for your wallet, for the animals, and for the planet. But also don't buy any preprocessed meat replacement products (see point 3).

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
