Jesus never ate meat treated with hormones or antibiotics. He never ate anything sprayed with pesticides. He never ate white flour, white sugar, high-fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated vegetable oil, artificial sweeteners, or fake fats. Why do Christians eat these things?

Where the heck is there a place that you can buy food without any of these things?
haha
I live in the city and everything has gotta be bought or I don't eat. Therefore, I can't grow my own goodies to eat.
Jesus was the son of God, as I am child of God, too.
But I don't do everything that Jesus did.
Anyways, we only know a limited time of his life. The bible doesn't have his whole life in it, therefore I can't really say
"Jesus didn't eat meat, I think I'll stop eating meat."
Because there would be a whole gap of his life that I'm missing that I would have to find out. (It's impossible)
I just like to live the rules that come in the book with all the stories.
aka
THE BIBLE.

Christians are human beings too and yes somethings have those things supposedly for our health and they make them tasty also, Personally I love Hostess cupcakes and might just pass on the manna.

Beats me, but we do. I keep making a stab at eating right....I go through long periods of eating fresh veggies, and fruits...lean meats....but before you know it...there I am,,,back to eating junk food...I think we do it because it is easy. It takes time to chop veggies and prepare fresh fruit.....and think up new ways to serve them..but just because you ask this,,,I am going to try one more time to stay away from junk food....I am not a glutton,,,but still,,,,we are supposed to take care of our body...it is the temple of the Holy Ghost..

Jesus, being a Jew would have eaten Kosher. As long as the food of his day (or this one) abides within the Laws of Kashrut, eat up!

The NT doesn't mention his diet. Anyway,there are no dietary restrictions in christianity. Plus,a lot of people who aren't christians eat all that stuff. Like me.

I avoid them but Jesus didn't have them and probably didn't care from the depiction of his spiritual nature over diet.
Not what goes in but what comes out of your mouth that defiles you as he is purported to have said.
