Beuli2 on 15 September 2010

It would help if there was a Burger King where I live.



Above: still the best game of the year.

A couple of years ago Burger King made the perfect commercial for men.

Then last night I saw the rightful sucessor to it.

I know one thing now. I have to buy a burger made of eggs and crosants. and watch a hot girl wash a car


You call that a "hot girl washing a car ad"?  This is a hot girl washing a car ad:

I don't think that's an American ad,and if it is it was probably shown late at night. lol

I'm a no fast food person. Thank Super Size Me!

you do know that in supersize me, the guy was a vegertarian before he started eating mcdonalds 24/7. furthermore he never exercised and even asked for delivery of the fast food. the rapid change in calorie intake with practically zero effort to burn it off will lead to his unhealthiness. bottom line you can eat fast food but you have to exercise.

You do realize his problem was that he ate at Mcdonalds everday for like a month.

If you ate anything for every meal for a month you'd get sick.

Plenty of good reasons to not eat fast food... but supersize me is a bad reason.  It was just some guy who was willing to risk his life for some publicity.

It's not about his 30 day goal.

He gave a lot of other information and statistic that showed how unhealthy fast food is.

I also had to do a research about childhood obesity after watching the movie at school and I learned a lot more information about it.

And even one fast food meal per week is way too much.

Yeah.  Once or twice a month is what you'd want to aim for... for the average person.

Of course the real issue with nutrtion is that everyone is different and everyone has different body chemistries.

Really, your body will tell you the right amount to eat of anything... if you listen to it.

This is stuff pretty much EVERBODY already knows.  He just wanted to harp on a point, make a movie that'd make him some money and set his girlfriend up for a cook book.

It'd be like if some healthy guy who runs marathons decided to smoke cigarrettes for a month and to stop running to see the health effects.  It'd be negative.... very.   People know that.

Most people just don't care though.

Some people think it's okay to eat fast food as long as you excercise regularly. Those people don't know.

I can't imagine many people like that existing considering how heavily mentioned this stuff is... the government and pretty much everybody else goes way out of the way to try and explain this stuff to people.

Actually, the government itself does not really do anything to fight fast food. Why would they?

"In 1970, Americans spent about $6 billion on fast food; in 2000, they spent more than $110 billion. Americans now spend more money on fast food than on higher education, personal computers, computer software, or new cars. They spend more on fast food than on movies, books, magazines, newspapers, videos, and recorded music - combined."

It's a question of money.


Enjoy your chick food.

lol no you can't. That's exactly what I'm talking about when I say people don't understand the effect of unhealthy food on our body.

Well at least it's food. I'm not even sure fast food is always food.

I was at the British science festival yesterday and there was a guy walking around dressed as the burger king doing some promotional thing, it was seriously quite scary.

I don't see the appeal of him.

Being a vegetarian and eating even good meat will make you sick
