Fast food, Fat profits: Obesity in America | Fault Lines

Food lobbyists are scumbags who don't care about anyone.

Soda and sugars are the same level of cigarettes! That it

The Chubby soda lol

those usda and government faces say almost everything about it

I didn't even think people still bought soda drinks nowadays. Like in LA you'll never hear someone say "I'll have a coke" unless they're some fat tourist. Stop drinking soda and drink water instead. How hard is this?

The US government spent billions to give everyone the COVID vaccines. They should have put that money to giving all Americans free access to GLP1 drugs, as the benefit of taking these is much better for all Americans.

Moro no brasil e fico me peeguntando como pessoaa almoçam, comem cafe da manha e jantam em restaurantes.
Ate os pobres comem comida de verdade.
Feijoes, arroz e alguma carne ou ovo.
Muita atividade física.
Isso nos protege de gordura.
Voces nao tem.uma casa pra comer um cafe da manha de verdade?

Healthy food cost more so I can't afford to eat much. Therefore I'm not overweight

One hundred six years ago, as the U.S. was entering WW1 in Europe, the problem was that the young men were all mostly underweight and not qualifying for military entry. Now the U.S. has the reverse problem: Overweight and therefore non-qualifying. It affects our mobilization readiness.

It's important to educate kids about what foods they hould eat but it's important to also note that kids eat what their parents give them and these are the way habits are formed. Most likely you will keep eating as your parents did.

McDonald's used to be cheap. Now taco trucks is the cheap stuff.

Cooking oil!!!!! Go back to LARD" PIG FAT". ITS THE EFFIN OIL!!!!

That confirms it. White people are the best!!!

I cannot imagine growing up in a neighbourhood without a grocery store selling any sort of fresh food. My heart goes out to the children that grow up on fast food. Thats horrible

Banger of an episode

Fast food is my favorite drug!!!!!

ABSOLUTELY NOT !!! HIP HOP IS SATANS WAY OF KEEPING THE COMMUNITY DOWN!!!! HE ABSOLUTELY KNOWS THEY ARE A EASY COMMUNITY TO SNOW WHICH IS WHY IT'S ABSOLUTELY ASTOUNDING THEY KEEP PUTTING SOMETHING OUT THERE THAT MAKES THEM EASY TO RECRUIT!!!

ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!!! JUST CAUSE ITS THERE DOESN'T MEAN YOU NEED TO EAT IT!!! QUIT IT!! IT'S ABSOLUTELY YOUR CHOICE NOT TO EAT 10 PEOPLES FOOD FOR A MEAL!!!! THE AMOUNT OF EXCUSE AFTER EXCUSE FOR BAD BEHAVIOR IS OFF THE CHAIN RIDICULOUS!!!

it's not actually the burger itself doing the harm; but the 3 buns; the fries; the sugared shakes and sauces eaten on top of it.

The lack of walkability of US cities also contributes to obesity. Most places here are designed very sprawled and car-centric, so your average American is forced to drive everywhere and not burn calories by walking or cycling

Only fast food fills you up with $8 in USA 😢

I eat a fresh vegetable salad everyday with avocado that costs $1.75. You can eat healthy and cheap. Just have to plan ahead and prepare your own food. No prepackaged food. No soda. No bread. You will feel better and lose weight

Nothing changes in Murica 😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

How about the fact that fat people HATE healthy foods? Saw plenty of friends refusing salads even when they didn't have to pay or prepare them. What's the excuse?

GOVERNMENT'S are the problem not the ANSWER.

THERE are more fat people in the MILITARY THEN EVER.

Juthe government OFFICIALS want you fat slow and dumb

DEPOPULATION AGENDA and medical insurance PROFITS.

for me, eating junk food is like therapy. It’s like my only source of happiness. even just thinking about eating a cheese burger makes me so freaking happy! it’s like a drug. I can quit eating it tomorrow and love a healthy life but it would be a really miserable life for me. I sometimes think I’d rather enjoy 20-30 years and die with a heart attack than live a health 6-pack miserable life and live an extra 10-15 years

No the key is to stop eating junk,it’s the people who are responsible for their obesity.

here's FOOD 4 THOUGHT.....
only...if people/parents STOP
SUPPORTING & BUYING
UNHEALTHY FOODS from the
food industry...they would be
OUT OF BUSINESSES........!!!!!

The portions in America is ridiculous . I actually get irritated when they bring out a huge portion at a restaurant, I know I can save some for later, but honestly there is no reason for it. Once I turned vegan, my whole perspective on food changed for the better. It's eye opening to see the unhealthy food culture in America. People will literally put anything in their body not knowing how it affects their body, brain, energy and spirit tbh.

It’s a lie that good food costs more.
You eat fast food because you’re lazy and want to.
You don’t want to make healthy food because it’s easier to buy it, get delivery and throw out the box.
You’re fault
No sympathy.
If you eat McD for breakfast, lunch and dinner, just admit you’re a fat lazy useless health burden.
I haven’t even had sugar or soda in my house for 20 years. No excuses

I use to be a lover of fast foods but after a minor health scare, my body was trying to warn me and those signs I couldn't ignore, I was more than convinced that eating fast foods all the time was doing me no good, I was doing more damage to my body than good and I had to make a change in my life because without no health you have no wealth.

No one forces it down the fat f*cks throats. I couldn’t care less. It’s not the restaurants responsibility, nor the government, but the consumer. I enjoy a fast food meal immensely .. OCCASIONALLY.

2020 FDA stated that 47.8 % of Americans are considered obese.

I didn't realize how fat Americans are until I went overseas.

If they would just eat meat .

I was in the USA for 1 month, I tried to eat healthy, still I gained 2.5 kilos.... It seems that even water has sugar and all kind on chemicals 🤔

Yet schools have severely restricted children’s outside active recess

If they went to the grocery store every day instead of McDonald’s it would cost less. Nobody is forcing people to eat the bun and cheese , eat the meat and salad.. don’t buy the pie and sugared sodas.. self control is a huge problem

Wow this video is 13 years old and nothing has changed.

FULLY RAW VEGAN DIETS will change this!!!! Do NOT "buy" hamburgers anymore!!! Start JUICING!!!BUY teh cheapest "juicer" for a 'start', and start juicing!!! You will know that your "body" will change, and YOU will not be obesed anymore!!!DO IT RIGHT NOW!!!WATCH FULLY RAW KRISTINA!!!! And, change your life and lifestyle!

It's a CHOICE. Nobody is making these people eat fast food or processed junk. The cost claim is a LIE to justify their poor choices.

Carbs, all bread get fat.

If you go to drive up to fast food restaurants they always ask you if you want to “ SUPER- SIZE “ your order. I told the girl or guy ( can’t remember which one ). “ look at me. Do I need to super-size anymore than this “ s d I do not need the French Fries or Fried Onion Rings and definitely not the high calorie high fat chocolate ice cream drink!!!
I agree many live to eat. I had VSL gastric sleeve surgery after gaining a lot of weight with increasing stress and menopause. And trying to sort of recover my problems with food. Not anymore. I keep a food diary and weigh in daily. And go to the gym regularly.

What an awful diet and ignorant is bliss too

Das problem in Amerika und Kanada ist auch, die Leute arbeiten wie Sklaven, wehren sich nie, haben keine Zeit und essen dadurch schlecht! Es sind die armen Leute

fast food should be more expansive and a luxury only for the many

McDonald's, KFC, and Wendy's are killing Americans and us British.
A happy meal is the first addiction process on the road to obesity and death.
I would close all fast-food joints and introduce proper nourishing food.
