TW: Stella and Emma discuss their shared histories about struggling with eating disorders and how these journeys impacted the mission behind Stellar Eats.
They dive into diet culture, how the early 2000s version of “health food” was a lot of diets in disguise, and why they hate when people say foods are ‘guilt-free’
- KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- “Diet culture” wants you to believe that being skinny is the most important thing about you. When in reality, it’s the most boring.
- Brands/media want you to believe being skinny is the #1 goal and that its the main indicator of health/wellness.
- Diet culture aims to reduce you down into the least interesting thing about you - how small you are.
