    Nah you are not an asshole barf. I am an Obese myself. 5'10" and 235 LBS as of today. But you know what, I feel like nature will play a number in you and you will marry a chubby girl. Wait for it and you will see.

    It seems to be a us problem, more than anywhere else? From my understanding, a lot of other countries shop at markets for fresh foods, while we hit Costco for processed and packaged. I think a lot has to do with our love for stocking our shelves, convenience.. and additives.

    Also, maybe other countries see fast food as a treat for every once in while. Here . There are plenty of people who see value meals at the drive thru as a square meals. You would be better off eating the packaging

    You shouldn't be able to buy junk food with food stamps.

    I called you an asshole, but it was just too tempting to vote before knowing what the thread was about.

    It's affordable. More calories per dollar.
    We need a big time upgrade of the food stamp system.

    no not really. There have been times in my life where there have been women with a certain rotundity that I liked, but overall no.

    It's the processed/packaged/fast food + the car culture. Send even a couple weeks in another country, you'll drop weight, even eating pretty much what/when you want. Plus the car culture. I'll never forget a work trip to Green Bay where we left the office to go get lunch, got in cars in the parking lot, drove literally 300 feet to the adjacent parking lot, got out and went into the restaurant there. FFS people.

    I’m lucky to have always been addicted to working out/running. 7 days a week , on top of a physical job. I’ve always ate well, but over the last year I cut out sandwich/ processed meats, packaged stuff like stove top or flavored rice etc. and notice a difference. Mainly did it because of the getting older/ increasing colon cancer risk, but it’s this types of foods with the preservatives poison that are causing many problems.

    not sure who’s been through the Myrtle beach area, but if you have, you have noticed the beach wear stores(rumored drug fronts), on every block. Now we have popping up everywhere, these huge stores called sugar life. It’s not just a candy store, it’s like a Walmart for candy… some even 2 floors. Every summer, you see these fat kids and their parents on vacation , walking out double fisted bags. I don’t imagine you see that In Italy.

    That·looks amazing. I was in Myrtle Beach a couple of weeks ago but didn't see it, that thing is definitely on my list now for my next trip.
