Title: DUmmies are going to have to find a new excuse for their bad diet habits
Post by: dane on May 16, 2012, 02:46:32 PM
There have  been many threads started with whines about it is simply too hard or too expensive to eat properly, that people live in food deserts and are forced to eat fast food, junk food, etc., which contributes to their "largeness" (my word, not theirs).

“…Healthy food no more costly than junk food, government finds   
Contrary to popular belief, many healthy foods are no more expensive than junk food, according to a large new government analysis.
"Price is not a good excuse" for not eating a nutritious diet, says Andrea Carlson, who studies food prices and food consumption with an emphasis on healthy diets….”
There’s more in the OP
There follows several responses denying or attempting to refute this new information, possibly typed by some of the large ones using fingers stained by various chips and snack foods.

What will they use for an excuse now?

Whatever excuse it'll be, it'll involve "it's not my fault."

Just like the Las Vegas Leviathan used to blame his mother of sacred memory, his brother, George Bush, and the Republicans for his massive size.

The thing though with healthy food is this, the Government wants you to eat it but gas prices are so damn high that people have to conserve their driving and can't access it.

HA!  How do the DUmmies think I make my living?  I work for Frito Lay and Hostess.  I cruise liberal web site and defend junk food.  From extoling the health benefits of what's in a Ho Ho to laying out claims that Ho Ho's are cheaper than Tofu!!

Suck it DUmmies.  I'm paid well.

Of course - The most logical excuse will be something to the effect of " {insert convenience store here} doesn't carry {insert healthy food here} and they are the only place open at 3AM when I get the munchies after smoking a righteous bowl. Pshyeah dude.."
