If his metabolism is really fast, how do you figure he affords all the food he needs to survive, much less continue actively fighting crime, considerong the vast amount pf energy he must expend running around his city?

He steals it. Nobody is going to catch.
They stopped the metabolism thing when the speed force was introduced and retconned past problems with eating/energy as Wally's connection needing to be realigned or some other similar bullshit.

Is that even canon anymore? He consumes speedforce now.
Flash needing to eat a fuckton is a meme spread by the show. The speedforce provides all the energy he needs. Yes, his metabolism is super fast, which means he CAN eat a ton of food if he wants to and quickly digest it, but he doesn't NEED to.

No it was a real thing in Post Crisis Flash that Mike Baron thought up.

I wonder how many toilets he exploded back when he needed to eat a fuck ton of food.

It's not a meme. It was indeed canon for a time, but most people do skip over those issues tbqh.

Best to let every creator write in limitations and power levels shit to their own needs. If it serves the story and doesn't hurt the brand too much so be it. I enjoyed basically all of v2 through 225 even through the changes.

I know it was a thing once, but it isn't anymore. It's one of the reasons the speedforce was introduced in the first place. But the show used both at once, making people believe it was still a thing, hence why I said it's a meme. Hell, just in the recent Green Arrow issue, Barry mentioned having to eat s ton.

Most of post crisis Wally run is now barrys.
Someone even drew Barry doing the post crisis Flash Cover pose of Issue 1.
