Will Truman on Food tech

I figure this is mostly a The Discourse problem, but every now and again some zoomer will be like "What they don't understand is that as far as we're concerned food delivery is a necessity not a luxury" and I grow a little more boomer every time I hear it.

Why it worked

Contradicts something the audience already believes, which stops the scroll.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Opens on a negative, which reads as a warning and is harder to ignore than a claim.
Quotes someone directly, which makes the moment concrete rather than summarised.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.

Written for: Founders, marketers and operators
