I once again just heard the axiom, “Glucose is the preferred fuel source to the body.” Actually, a different way of looking at it is that storing glucose in large quantities is hard, storing fat in large quantities is easy. Is that important?

2/ Imagine you have several food items in two categories.
The first food item is EatSoon, which can be easily eaten and refrigerated, but to put it in the freezer takes some time and effort.
The other is EatWhenever, which can be eaten, refrigerated, or frozen right away.

3/ So you get home with two giant bags of groceries, one full of EatSoon and one full of EatWhenever. But your refrigerator can only hold one bag of these items.
Do you fill it with EatWhenever, taking the time and effort to prepare the EatSoon for the freezer?
