81. Sorry to hear that you eat this food

as it is very bad for you. As a young person, it may not be so apparent, but as one ages it becomes crystal clear. I am sorry that you feel that you have no choice.

When I was in grad school I joined a food coop so that I could work for veggies and I cooked for a fraternity so that I could buy meat. All this while pulling 16-20 units a quarter. Not a lot of free time, but I sure built character as they used to call it in my day.

Perhaps you can find a farm or a community garden to volunteer at. Once you get involved with food production, then you will see how bad the processed food really is for people.
