Day 1
| What are you missing the most? |
| I usually include fresh fruit or fresh vegetables with my meal this is something that I noted right away as missing |
| What are your challenges with cooking? |
| I’m not a big breakfast person so I combined breakfast with lunch. I boiled the 2 potatoes. and then I fried up one with a partial chopped up onion. I then had crispy home fries with an egg prepared sunny side up. It was pretty good. So I didn’t really have any issues preparing my lunch. |
| Your thoughts on taking the challenge vs. the reality for people facing economic hardship and limited access to food. |
| I would have liked the option of a salad or a piece of fruit today. Water was my only liquid. |
