Honestly growing up in poverty made things hard for me, and I didn't really realize how it affected my view of food until later in adulthood. My parents wouldn't complain or talk about how much food cost, ever. But we wouldn't have much in the cupboards. On school days, I would care for the younger children after classes, when my parents were still working, and I would need to make sure everyone got dinner. So I would usually split up what we had between the kids, and I would just wait until I got free breakfast at school the next day. That's obviously not a good situation to be in, but it wasn't obvious to me that may have impacted my eating patterns.
