I kind of disagree Sareitha Sedai Send a noteboard - 16/02/2012 03:04:29 PM
Actually I do, but I don't find this amusing. It's all too disgusting. 300 000 Americans die each year due to obesity. The last thing people need is a restaurant that caters to that segment of the population that doesn't care about their health unhealthy food. (that sentence feels weird..)

I agree, but it is entirely up to each person. I might eat there once for the novelty, but I can't tell anyone not to go there. In case I wasn't clear, I do not think either the situation or the restaurant is funny.

I'd say that people are eating better now than they were - otherwise you wouldn't see the token "healthy" meals popping up at McDonald's, etc.


I think people want to feel like they're eating better but either don't know what that really means or are willfully deluding themselves that these so-called "healthy" options are actually better for them. I can feel great about eating a salad instead of a cheeseburger if I pretend it doesn't actually have more fat and calories than the cheeseburger.

If you are from Betelgeuse, please have one of your Earth friends read what I've written before you respond. Or try concentrating harder.

On the other hand, I can think of no greater killjoy than obsessing about your health beetnemesis - 16/02/2012 04:47:28 PM 423 Views
