[Matrix] Why don't they eat good food in VR to help having to eat the nutrient "snot" in reality?

I'd suspect that this happens but we don't see it in in text/scene. Remember how Mouse tells Neo that he can meet with the Lady in Red? That seems to indicate that the programs (not the actual Matrix) are used recreationally to fulfill "needs" not being met in the real world.
