Cancer Vaccine? In America, Pizza is a VEGETABLE!

The problem with our food is the portion sizes and the fact that the typical American's diet revolves around an 18th century lifestyle.

FTFY. Steak and potatoes is fine if people actually exercised.
 


I'm not trying to belittle America here, because I've no doubt it's the same the world over, but I watched a program with Jamie Oliver, who travelled to America (I think it was the Huntingdon series) and tried to help people eat better.

Well, he went to a primary school and quizzed children on what various vegetables were and hardly any could name more than a couple. Then he showed how they're fed fucking flavoured milk (which the heath authority says is good for them or some bollocks) and that they generally live off shit.

Obviously they need viewers, so there's no doubt some spin and careful editing involved, but I was shocked that the powers that be wouldn't let him feed them healthier stuff, because they (the FDA or someone) had decided they need "a bread" amongst other crap. It was fucking ludicrous.

I also watched that and the second season in Los Angeles. Besides the strawberry milk available at all times, they served pizza for breakfast at the elementary school in the show. Chocolate Skim Milk was an option once per week back when I was in school.

I have no idea what Jamie is doing in the US, there are still lots of schools in the UK with shit meals on the school menu. Charity starts at home, well in this case food education.

No doubt lots of editing goes into that US show. The kids that answered correctly got cut out. Kids that age in any school/country are only just learning what vegetables are. It's nothing shocking, it's just made for viewing pleasure and to knock another country I suppose.

Most countries have poor eating habbits. If they are so worried about the US/UK/EU dying from a heart attack from nasty food the answer is simple ...

FUCKING BAN MCDONALDS, BURGER KING, KFC AND EVERY OTHER GREASE SPEWING FAST FOOD PLACE!

Oh wait, you can't do that. You'd lose money on tax. Forgive me. I forgot.

No we can't do it (in the USA), because that would be flat out against the Constitution. It has nothing to do with Taxes.
 
Whatever happened to taking your own lunch to school? That's what happened when I was a kid at least. Take a bagged lunch to school, and sit around and eat it with your friends during lunch break. Then when you hit 13/14, you were in high school, and lunch was up to you. Stay in the school and eat your own, or head out somewhere. Loads of restaurants & fast food joints setup right around the school just for that reason.

But since when did it become the school's responsibility to feed the kids? And not just feed them, but feed them to everyone's liking?
 
I bet you they can name every fucking meal in Mcdonald's

Saw a study online where they said majority of kids nowadays can name more brands than animals.

All vegetables are fruits but not all fruits are veggieS. Come at me bros.

I just hate when people blindly count on others to deal with their shit. Feels so good to lift that monkey off your back, doesn't it?

If you want your kids to eat healthy and good food in school, then just cook it at home, and let them take it to school. You can't do it, because don't have time? Welcome to 21st fcukin century. Learn to deal with your shit. If you want something the way you want, you just got to do it yourself.

Fuck that shit. Not that I particularly enjoy McDonalds it would be fucking ridiculous to ban them, especially for your reasons. People need to be educated. Same as drugs, don't punish the users, educate them.

I fucking LOVE unhealthy food but I'm not overweight in the slightest. Why punish me?
