Ofcourse, USA chains are appearing all over and the end result is we'll all be driving around on mobility scooters like fat americans.

It's weird.. Americans (imo) are far more health conscious then us. What kills America is that the food has shit regulations and some diabolical stuff in it, but as for eating mass amounts of fast foods (subway aside), i'd say the UK is far far ahead. Every drink is buggered to shit with high sugar contents and crap for example.

Sounds wrong to me. The recently introduced Mountain Dew tastes like shit here meaning I still have to import it from USA. Is this because of shitty UK law not allowing corn syrup in soft drinks?

sweet ive always wanted a mobility scooter so I can bez about being a cantankerous old bastard knocking people out the way and running little children over whilst shouting about being respected.

It's because corn farmers are massively subsidised in the US making corn syrup muchos cheapos in the US vs the rest of the world.

Isn't it cause of the size of the american meals? Isn't a large coke in the US something like 1.5liters?

Drinks and chips might be bigger but the burgers apparently aren't. Mate went to Vegas a few months back and reported that the Big Macs are the same size as they are here.

As for the topic. Well, I eat pretty much nothing but what you would call junk food. I also go through 2 litres of Coca Cola a day and smoke like a chimney. I'm 6' 2" with a medium build. I weigh 11 stone 7 pounds. This according the the scales is pretty much my ideal weight. The reason? I'm physically active. I work in a supermarket and it's a active role, always on the move, lifting and carrying etc.

It is a simple case of exercise, unless there is an existing medical condition that causes you to gain or at least not lose weight.

Yeah, but the fries and coke are enormous. Or they were at least
Rember watching Supersize Me and was baffled at the supersize portion, must have been 2-3 times as big fries as we have in Sweden and the same with the Coke. Think they have withdrawn the Supersize choise tho

It is also more to it than just pure weight, have you had a medical recently?

Aye my lungs are clogged with tar and I've no doubt got fatty deposits around my heart. However I enjoy my life and eating fuck all but "healthy" foods, not drinking, not smoking? Sounds terribly dull and if I have a heart attack or get cancer so be it. I'll not be bored and boring to avoid such possibilties. I'm physically active and my weight is good, that's enough for me.

I kind of agree with you... BUT! You can eat far healthier and at the same time faaaaaaaaaar tastier without ever setting your foot in a McD

 

[DaGaffer]

Pretty much weaned myself off McDonalds (although the missus has a constant craving for McFlurries, which is about the only food she's not throwing back up five minutes later), have always loathed KFC, but I will have the very occasional Burger King (every couple of months or so).

I've pretty much switched to stuff like Sushi at lunchtime because most off the shelf sandwiches are actually more fattening than a Big Mac, but I'm still piling weight on though because I get little or no time to exercise properly. Its definitely exercise that makes the difference.

 

[eksdee]

Usually eat McDonalds like twice a year or so, one of those times was a couple of weeks back. My girlfriend had that new 1950 burger, pretty tasty!

Noone has the right to intervene into someones life, everyone to their own. But I would bet that one of the main reasons you are still keeping the same weight and not having to go through a harder time is your age. Your body wont be able to withstain such unhealthy decisions when the "buffer" is gone.

Same in Spain if you take the plus menu you end up with a huge coke and fries. Their large fries in Rhonda was about twice the size of Swedish one, the coke was 1l+

Yeh the 'size' is how big you want your fries and drink. Medium is the equal to a supersize fries over here. Large is insane. That and the drink is huge and refillable.

Bring back DOUBLE QUARTER POUNDERs PLEASE!!!!

Smoking like a chimney means you can't really taste much any more, hence no attraction to healthy foods (which are much tastier than the alternatives).

Wait until you hit 40, when your metabolism has slowed to a point where you're not burning off enough calories. You'll have a huge gut, be coughing every morning, and won't be able to walk even half a mile without getting out of breath.

Sounds great, doesn't it?

Love it Tom

I love comments about being boring and eating healthy food. Healthy can be awesome. I know because I'm a foody and don't generally eat anything which is considered unhealthy (lost 7 stone - ain't putting it back on). I make an exception at the Weekend because I love wine and real ale.

The 'great' Mcdonalds taste is nothing but sugar and fat and probably some suspect flavour enhancers (MSG and the likes). It is not good food. Real flavour comes from fresh herbs, spices, good cuts of meat and good fresh veg.

The nation would benefit from a systematic torching of fast food outlets. Either that or bashing the living ignorance out of people.

I know a lot of "unhealthy" dishes that are way tastier than any healthy alternatives cause they contain plety of cream and butter etc..

 

[Tom]

Holy fucking shit, Leggy!

Cream and butter is perfectly healthy. The human body requires fat to survive.

It's the sugar that does most of the damage IMO.

Myth nr 1: Cream and butter are unhealthy

 

[Fafnir]

Myth nr 1: Cream and butter are unhealthy

Yes, and since they keep you full longer than light stuff you dont eat as much.

 

[Lamp]

Amen to the first part. Who the fuck would honestly prefer a greasy KFC to a beautifully cooked steak?

Not sure there's a stick big enough to do the 2nd

England is a country with far too many underclass chavy fuckwits & its gonna stay that way until we get a decent government with backbone & balls

 

[Everz]

Yes as we all knows those chavy fuckwits are the main cause of this epidemic of fatness!

Jeez.

 

[DjSatansfury]

And of course you can get a decent steak for the price of a £2 McDonalds burger/kfc chicken/etc.
