hmm...let's hope none of the franchises pick up on Mr. Krab's "Krabby Patty". Although, that could have an interesting outcome.![]()

Hmm. I don't know -- I've always thought Krabby Patties looked pretty tasty.

Have you all no pity, think of the poor illegal immigrants slaving in fourteen hour a day jobs with a twenty minute lunch break chasing the American dream. A days calories in one burger is the perfect solution for them.

It's unhealthy, Olly. You're not supposed to consume your daily calorie intake in one meal. You're supposed to spread it out so your body has sufficient energy to last the day.
Haha Sam, I think Olly was kidding.
There's a burger at a local fish'n'chip joint around here called a Heart Attack Burger.
At least they're honest.

Except that what Olly is saying isn't very far from the truth. A lot of illegal aliens eat fast food because it's cheap -- and unfortunately, that's what they feed their children too. My wife volunteers at an English as a second language program, and many of the children of immigrants with whom she works are overweight. In fact, a lot of people with low incomes eat fast food for the same reasons. It's filling and cheap.
It's the same way at the grocery store. The way our food industry works, good, nutritious foods are far more expensive than bad food. That's why obesity and diseases related to it like diabetes are so common among the poor. And a lot of it has to so with a lack of education about healthy eating, too. It makes me ill when I see someone paying for groceries with food stamps and the cart is filled with potato chips, cheap white bread and soft drinks.

We don't have McD's and Burger King in Belize, but a majority of the people manage to eat all the wrong things anyway. Obesity is common, diabetes is the leading cause of death, and in a country that is capable of producing fresh fruits and vegetables 12 months out of the year we have a general lack of fresh fruits and vegetables in our diet.
Here's an interesting article related to the subject -- why people crave fat, salt and sugar. Evidence seems to show that people can literally be addicted to these unhealthy foods.
