I agree. There is nothing wrong with them in the sense that it needs to be fixed. And if they fixed a time problem for people who dont enjoy food. Fine. I still disagree with their approach and i think i have the right to state that without be labled as judgemental. I do actually have a friend who is the same way. He says he eats just to be not hungry. He couldnt care less about food. I dont like this attitude. But he is still my friend. There is a difference between pointing out a different opinion and being judgemental. Its just a small part of his persona anyway.

I understand where you're coming from. It's hard to have friends with opinions that you think are wrong. One of the reasons that I'm taking the time to provide a counterview is because if the feedback is primarily negative people often feel ashamed of their attributes. I'm vegetarian and I receive primarily negative feedback for it. Same with being a geek, and a programmer. Due to how this affected with me when I was younger I tend to think that negative feedback for attributes without a clear negative should be kept to a minimum.
