John doesn't care about food – not anymore.
He can't, not with Mary gone, when she'll never be able to eat ridiculous things and laugh about it with him again. But he is human, and so are his sons –probably, mostly, hopefully—, and humans need to eat, so he brings them to diners and gets something random. A burger, maybe, or a burrito, or whatever is the cheapest. Half the time, he doesn't even know what he ordered. (He never notices when Dean orders the same).
He does care about alcohol, though. He gets the strongest, most potent alcohol he can without it costing ridiculous amounts. It's better for dulling the pain faster—and the faster the better when he can't help but think of her, Mary, his love, the woman he thought he'd have so much more time with.
Dean is a good son— he should hope so, with how hard he tries.
He always pays attention to John, to what his father, idol, and hero does and wants. Food is no different, even though Dean is fifteen and always hungry, even though Dean really likes burgers and onions and bacon – even better all together. But he orders the same as John, always, because if his father is getting it, there's a reason, right?
And if he sometimes orders a piece of pie, too, because of an only half-there memory of love and safety and warmth and pie, well, John never seems to care, so it doesn't matter.
Sam likes vegetables.
Dean makes fun of him for it, but Sam doesn't care. Vegetables taste good, and he doesn't really get much chance to have them. So what if it's kind of weird for an eleven-year-old? It's not like that's the most abnormal thing about Sam Winchester. Besides, the lunch lady in one of his schools said that vegetables were good for him, so it can't really hurt, right? And she said that greasy food, like the kind his family often got from diners and convenience stores, is bad for you 'cause it clogs up your arteries and corrupts your body, too.
Sam figures she was probably right. With how much diner and convenience store food they eat, it would explain why he always feels so dirty.
