making fast food more expensive not only fucks over low income people, but does not actually fight obesity as it aint gonna make fat asses exercise, or diet
no, it fucks over lazy people.i don't want to repeat myself, but it is cheaper to cook healthy food than it is to eat shit at mcdonalds. but it's a lot easier and 'tastier' to eat mcdonalds everyday and sit on your fat arse than go to the shop, buy vegetables and seasonings, and then cook them.
it's the easy option that most people take, not necessarily the cheapest (though they'll often think it's the cheapest)

so how exactly does this prevent or fight obesity?
your logic is absolutely retarded - even if they go home and cook, its not gonna make them exercise or run a calorie deficit
^ personally I find that it is actually difficult to eat too much when cooking foods from scratch (e.g. not microwave dinners etc.) at home. As someone who visits the Workout/Training thread, I'd have expect you to recognize the difficulty of running a calorie surplus from home cooked foods.

As sonick said, when u eat good, natural food dull of nutrients and fibre, you fill up much quicker and with fewer calories. Very easy to be relatively healthy with no purposely exercise.
Also, if it could help someone lose 30, 50 lbs etc, they'd then feel much more inclined to exercise if their current weight was a deterrent to them working out (this is very true to lots of fat, low motivation people, they need a first win to get going)
But rather than discussing u start calling the thinking retarded.
States that activity is more important than diet, yet goes on the next five paragraphs with examples of how diet is more important than activity.
you can scientifically deduct that:
all fit sexy looking people work out.
not all fit sexy looking people focus on diet (or care).
not all unfit fatasses focus on diet (or care).
all unfit fatasses don't workout.
so... don't eat, and workout. like i said! lol.
i duno about you guys
everytime i see someone watching the cooking channel, or talk about food or excited about a dining out event they're going to...
i just see a junkie. like... you guys would be like "WTF" if people were watching TV shows about cooking meth, rolling weed, cleaning coke... techniques and ways to prep.
talk about getting their next hit... excited to go to a "drug party".
it's exactly the same.
people promote food like it's some... something to be proud of. lol. it aint nothing but anti-meth. meth make you skinny and energetic.
food make you lethargic and fat.
junkies. junkies that need help.
in fact there is a whole section on RS promoting this drug culture. I can guarantee you the average fat% of the average poster in that forum is higher than the ones in the fitness thread, and the party thread.
it's just simple. u wanna stop being fucked up on drugs? stop taking drugs.
you wanna stop being a fat ass? stop fucking eating.
if you can't stop, you have a problem. get help. you're addicted.
there's a thread on how to stop masturbating.
why isn't there a thread on how to stop eating so fucking much?
it's no different. addicted to some physical sensation. addicted to dopamine release.
if people can't see the similarity between the two... well, no wonder they're fat.
if you choose to "fuck it" and do what you want and live a life of fattery... well guess what, people are gonna point fingers and laugh at you and call you a fat fuck. you're gonna be unhealthy, toxic, and repulsive to the people around you, and the system that supports you. that's part of the package.
just like a meth junkie will get stares and refused service. just like a pot head will be called a "dumb stoner". and a coke head will be "egotistical jackass"
you reap what you sow.

edit: hey look... http://www.urbandictionary.com/defin...term=food+high a natural high occurring from eating a mighty fine meal. food highs are usually experienced by fat kids
lol. i am not the only one that thinks this.
i sneer in disguist when i see a junkie injecting himself and letting go of all sense of self control while he lays there in the dark ally.
i also sneer in disguist when i see people indulge themselves with food, eyes wide open, losing all control of the self, masticating the food, no different than a dog with it's head in the dog bowl. becoming animals...
i'll trade u guys good food, if you put this leash around your neck and crawl around like a dog. c'mon. it's food. you'd give up your dignity for food right? c'monnn its delicious sweet (insert favourite food)... it's only your dignity. it's a fair trade!!! come here... come here doggy!!! i got some food for ya!!! that's my doggy!!! sit!!! good job!!! here's a treat... lay down!!! there's a treat... suck my dick... there's a treat.
aw you don't want any treats? too bad, you're already dogs. who's a good doggy? that's right you're a good doggy!!! here's another treat!!!
wouldnt it be a sight, to see a food lover, have his sense of smell burnt from his face and his tongue cut off? gluttons are the most disgusting people on this planet, next to morbidly obese people that cant survive without some kind of medical care.
i aint talking about "heavier" people. they've always existed. im talking about REAL GLUTTONS. ones that worship food. ones that will become immediately depressed if they were denied sweets.
but honestly guys, i don't give two shits about gluttons anymore. like i said, they lower the standard of human, so that everyone else can shine above them. i throw them pity, the same way i throw a dog a bone. at the very least, it's amusing to watch.
edit: no, i revise my statement. it's not just morbidly obese people. it's anyone who enjoys food the same way they enjoy a drug, but they make excuses to as why you cannot compare food to drugs. the ones that indulge openly in food, and admit they enjoy it the same as a drug... they're ok.
you've all met potheads that say pot isnt a drug.. it's just a plant man...
or "yeah im a functional coke user". "alcohol isnt a drug"... "food isnt a drug". gimmie a break guys. admit it. you're getting high off of it. it's a drug. admit it. ADMIT. REPENT and perhaps ill spare you some dignity when we meet in the 3rd circle of hell (ill pass by you guys on my way down to the better circles of hell where me, jason, and a few others are stuck in a perpetual orgy with demons that jizz lava.. and each little bit of lava jizz that burns you off, becomes a mini you. and the mini you's have vaginas and dicks, and they fuck each other while jizzing more lava on you).
I duno. life is boring, maybe ill go grab some mcdonalds and make myself feel better as i chew on that blissful tasting meat, while staring at the old ladies with guts as big as their asses line up for 1 dollar xtra large cokes.

humans need to eat. i'd rather eat good food that i'm excited about than crap food just for sustenance.
your junkie analogy is definitely imaginative, not sure i can agree with you, though some of the 'foodie' types, in their extreme, are a bit like that.
