      Jesus Christ is the propitiation for the whole world's sins. They that believeth and are baptized (with the Holy Spirit) shall be saved; but they that believeth not shall be damned. Those led by the Holy Spirit do not abide in wickedness. 👍🏾
      *God is ONE manifesting himself as THREE;* the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit! Bless him! *For these three are one.*
      As I am led by the Holy Spirit, nothing I state is a lie, but the truth of God. Anyone who tells you differently is misinformed or a liar. They do not know God, nor led by him.
      Anyone who *claims* to be a Christian and is against what I am doing, and where I am doing it; the Holy Spirit does not dwell within them, they lack understanding. They know not God, read his word, and their religion is in vain. Do not hear them, they will mislead you, the lost cannot guide the lost.

      Another truth many have been deceived of:
      When you trust in God and cast your cares (worries, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts) upon him, they will be NO MORE!
      Know that there is power in the name Jesus Christ! His name casts out demons and heals!
      The world is wicked, evil, and of the devil.
      I too, was a wicked sinner of the world before I opened my heart to God. I am living proof of God's work and fruitfulness! He is an active God who hears the prayers of his! God's children are set apart (holy) and righteous. The devil is a liar that comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy; that includes your relationship with God!
      Open your heart to God, repent of your sins (he will forgive you), and let him direct your path. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands and purify your heart, lest you walk with the devil and follow him to hell.

      They make precooked and seasoned grilled chicken strips that you buy frozen, for way cheaper than this. I literally microwave them and they ACTUALLY taste good and might be more convenient since to make the squares taste better you've gotta dirty a pan. they literally sell pouches of microwaveable rice, again for cheaper for a larger serving. Think they're like $1.50 now and it's easily the same as three squares. For the veggies, if you hate veggie texture- just heat up baby food and add some seasoning salt. If you like veggie texture, you can get 8oz-1lb of frozen veggies in a microwaveable streamable bag for $0.75-1.50. For fish, there's pouches of seasoned tuna/salmon that don't even need heating for around $1.50 also. As for nuts, as you said, they make 100cal pouches of nuts for cheaper than the squares. I keep some in my bag. If ya don't like the texture of nuts- nut butter exists! Basically you can make pretty easy and comparable meals with less cost and possibly less cooking/prep and more importantly- it's probably gonna taste better. Idk I get the square thing for those who have adversions to texture or the look of food, specifically for those with autism spectrum disorder. I have ASD (previously diagnosed as moderate functioning asbergers) and so I have issues with texture or look of food, for example cooked spinach, watermelon, tough cuts of beef, pork chops, yogurt drinks and more. My solutions? Eat raw spinach or have it blended into something else, watermelon popsicles (the real kind made of juice), ground beef, I avoid pork tbh, and I eat actual yogurt. If you're a desperate caregiver to an autistic dependent, squares might be a valuable tool. You could also make your own with molds and some simple ingredients like starches to bind things and stuff like gelatin to help hold the shape for cold items.

    I have to admit the squares are... Weirdly aesthetically pleasing. I don't imagine ever eating them for a prolonged period of time at home, but if it was like a thing in gimmick restaurant and it was quality ingredients and freshly made, I would probably go there every other week to have my squares.

      yeah it reminds me of really fancy places where every serving is like a singular bite and super done up for no reason. Like if they were garnished and put on fancy plate I could be convinced but on their own they look a little dystopian

      There used to be a place with healthy instant ramen in Japan where you got to choose freeze dried toppings that were all cubes which reminds me of that. You got to choose your noodles, soup base and vegetable cubes and then take your custom ramen cups home. Genuinely cool.

      It does seem silly at a glance, but chefs in fancy restaurants get paid well for a reason. Also, the tiny food is often served as part of multiple courses, not just the one. So not only are you going to be full by the end of your 13 different tiny dishes, but you get to view the food as art, too. It's basically dinner and a show, mixed with amazing cooking and the potential to try something new.
      Not trying to seem too worked up about it, but then again I can't really help it because I'm really passionate about cooking and art lol. I really respect the culinary world and the years of mastery that goes into it.
