The food itself doesn't
make people obese, the people who ate too much of the bad stuff and didn't exercise made
themselves obese. I'm no fan of most fast food either, but I know when to quit eating it. If you eat the stuff once in a great while, and exercise, it shouldn't be much of a problem. And, if the food makes you feel run-down or a bit ill afterward, don't eat it again. But, I imagine these people don't pay much attention to what their bodies are trying to tell them. And, the switch in their brains that tell them they are full and should stop eating doesn't work.
A couple of nights ago, on the NatGeo channel, I think, there was a show on about obese people. A couple of obese women from England [[one very pretty, BTW
) flew to Mississippi to spend a couple of weeks with another very obese woman who had diabetes 2, and she was very unrepentant about her horrendous eating habits. Despite her bad health, she would not stop eating bad food. And, she would put lots of salt on everything! My point is that no one made her fat and gave her diabetes. She did it to herself. Turns out her whole family was the same way. I have family like that on my mother's side. They all live in the same area and eat the same bad food, and all of them are always sick. I'm glad my parents moved away from all of that. I may be a bit overweight myself, but I get exercise, and don't eat much fat or cholesterol, though I have a bad sweet tooth. I'm never sick, and I can outrun people less than half my age and not get winded.
