Captain, the ship’s computer shows that replicator comfort meals are up a whopping %4000. I think you should reconsider your “always on red alert” crew readyness policy.

On the one hand: no matter what you replicate it’s ethical, nutritious, and good for you. There are literally no bad choices for your body.
On the other: you have access to a bottomless culinary database that spans innumerable diets, cultures, broad swaths of history… and you order Chef Boyardee’s finest with a few saltines. I think it’s time to talk to the ship’s counselor, because nobody should be eating struggle meals in a post-scarcity society.

Struggle meals have a charm, honestly. Its simple, if I had billions of dollars I’d still eat it.

“We wouldn’t have to eat Kraft dinner!”
“But we would eat Kraft dinner.”
“Of course we would! We’d just eat more!”
With all of the fanciest ketchups!

But what if I want to eat trash food that’s bad for my body to punish myself for having the audacity to continue to exist?

Computer:
That option does not exist in the replicator database. Please seek medical attention if you are contemplating self-harm.

Fine, fine. Guess I’ll just go lick the warp core!

Ensign, you are relieved of duty and are to report to the Counselor immediately for mental evaluation.

Saltines, eh? I may need to try that sometime…
