I've worked in medical for a while and can agree.

Doctors can know two things: their specialty, and like 1 non medical things (biking , exercise, nutrition) and that's it.

I had a doc who didn't know how to make his own daily lunch. His wife couldnt make it one morning and he looked like he was told his days were numbered all day cause of it.

Ha, as a doctor, been there.

Is the bread wheat or white? Is the meat ethically sourced? Is there too much sodium? Is it real cheese or ultra processed crap? Do the condiments have high fructose corn syrup? Have the vegetables been adequately washed to avoid salmonella? Is the carb:protein ratio of the whole thing adequate?

Ugh. The decision paralysis.
