you are an idiot. fast food is healthy? is the pope jewish now?
He just might be. He's Polish originally after all
Either way the whole outrage over fast-food is pathetic. It getsdangerous when you eat it like the guy in supersize me, but eat it moderately like a normal human being and you can still have a good cholestorol count and a good heartbeat, and still not be as fat as Michael Moore (sorry, just saw a pic of him with no neck/ 7 double chins).
All food can be part of a heathly diet if eaten in moderation.
That last word is the key to this whole debate. If you are only going to feed a child (who doesn't exercise) fast food then they will become obese.
It is perfectly possible to survive and recieve all vitamins by only eating fast food.
The problem we have, as has been explained, is that we don't exercise enough anymore and not that our diet is appaling...
Are you having a laugh?! Living as a vegetarian, and being arsed to cook it properly is a million times cheeper than living of crappy meat and fish products out of the freezer. Or have you been looking only at the organic section?
Now, myself I lost 6 pounds in 6 weeks, and not because I was trying to. I was doing endless excercise and still eating like a rugby player. I kid you not, enourmous breakfast (8 bits of toast for example) full lunch (2 helpings?) three course dinner (two helpings again, with bread) and the odd snack during the day. Who loses weight eating like that? I do, excercise is the solution!
Now, on a different tack, what about the chemicals put into food these days? Endless e-numbers, what are they doing to the mentality of children. Is ADHD diet based, or society caused? I simply where we're going?
McShite food and its junk food rivals have massive amounts of fat, salt and sugar. Eating one in a bluemoon is not going to give an instant heart attack, but anything that approaches regular consumption definitively has a negative effect on the body.
I truly fear for anyone who eats from such outlets two, three or more times a week.
I agree, a balanced diet is essential for good health and happy bodily functions
exactly........you can eat healthy but have one day where you can indulge, after all we all like a treat
Very refreshing, though one can't help but think that the S*n and McDonalds are two names forever linked and that the average S*n reader practically lives on McShite 'food'. How long before McDonalds suggests punters avoid reading the S*n in order to protect their intellectual health?
Which is why it is recommended to eat their burgers, rather than their salads with toppings.
How often did they eat the fast food?
I agree. It is crap.
I'm sure I saw a trial somewhere where the person but on weight after only eating that type of food.
come on ...don't smoke pot or we throw you in jail ...had no effect whatsover.
people need to be taught how to take fucking responsibility for themselves!
taxes and rules taxes and fucking rules ...
the more fucking rules the less justice.
you modern people frighten me.
