Back in 2011, in my early twenties, after I had just returned from living overseas, I took a job as a truck driver, crisscrossing the USA on a weekly basis. I preferred eating healthier foods, when convenient, but getting somewhere with quality food was difficult at best, especially since the truck was moving for both day and night shifts. Fridge space was sparse, freezer space was non-existent, and cooking was just about impossible. I loved fruits and vegetables, so I attempted to go vegetarian. I failed miserably. I started to get strong meat cravings not two days into restricting my diet. Figuring that my diet wasn’t appropriately balanced, before or after the change, I thought that I was missing nutrients that my body was now complaining about, so I started eating meat again.
