[@Debbie-henri]

​@@jennifermanian1420But most of all, the food industry wants to keep injecting all those addictive chemicals and sugar into your food. They want to keep you buying their products. Sugar is taxed in the UK (introduced by the government in a very lame effort to stop people eating so much sugar. Tax doesn't stop drinkers or smokers though, the threat of dying does that). Of course, those who're already sugar addicted don't stop, and sugar goes into more products than ever. The latest sugar trend here is a huge range of energy drinks - coupling sugar with caffeine, a bunch of chemicals, a horrible taste and all stuffed in a 'supersize me' can (the drink industry's answer to the bucket). Most people generally overlook the chemicals in processed foods, because they are either confused by the words or familiar with seeing them in our products every day. They think that's all right. But is it?. So the government and food industry and chemical industry are all doing high fives with each other, the consequences of their indifference felt by our NHS instead (which gets blamed by the government for not sorting out the waiting list problem in some parts of the country). I expect that, eventually, the US government will look to what the UK has done, realise that we didn't have a revolution over sugar tax, just a few weeks of mild complaints, and will start taxing it over there one day. It's going to rake in billions.

[@johnmartlew]

I saw fat couple get on the plane. It was two rows of three seats. Both had trouble getting down the aisle. Sideways. They took up two and a half of the three seats. I waited to see if the third seat was assigned. It was. The slim fellow took one look at the attendant who just happened to be there and said “No way” She led him to another seat. The couple were in their early twenties and both carried a shopping bag of junk food. And this condition is what our “culture” now defends with enough vigour to cast them as role models in ads. One deleted comment? Can’t imagine who might say something that bad to get removed. Must have been Rickie Gervais. Now two…..

It's true that EVERYTHING, including the people, is bigger in America. I used to be a Porter in a Hotel (BellBoy !!) and when a coach load of Americans arrived I sort of went into shock. Even the kids were bigger than me. But not only were they wider, they also seemed to be taller. They were massive. Their suitcases were huge too. In the restaurant, our full plates seemed so pathetic in front of them. But the majority of them were really nice as far as tourists go. I liked them, they tipped well (in dollars, which when converted wasn't much at all, but they tipped when it wasn't expected and that was really nice) and they were mostly very polite. But size-wise, I was actually in AWE of them !

Had that once on a flight - he took up half my seat *_and_* he was malodorous 🤢 To add insult to injury, when it was time for the meal, the Stewardess handed him his meal, then asked him to pass mine to me. He took my meal removed the top and ate that too. My parents had to ask a Stewardess on their side for a meal for me. When I returned home, I complained to the company we’d booked with, but they just said they couldn’t do anything about a passenger’s behaviour.

I think sugar has a lot to do with it. And it is in everything. Not just the candy. soft drink and baked goods aisles, places you'd expect to find sugar. I recently read the labels on 15 different brands of potato salad. ALL of them had sugar listed in the ingredients. Do you put sugar in your potato salad? Didn't think so. I ended up with 3 pounds of potatoes and made it myself. I find myself doing more and more 'from scratch' because nothing prepared is healthy any more. I do not own a scale. I have never tracked my weight. If I found my size 8 jeans getting snug, time to alter the diet. Every morning when I took a shower, I'd look down. Can't see pubic hair? Time for cottage cheese on lettuce for lunch.

Thank-you. As a kid, my parents were -- like 99% of Americans -- unaware of sound nutrition and convenience ruled the kitchen. Thus it's been struggle all my adult life.I never reached nearly the size you are talking about, because I played serious sports into my thirties, and took a course in nutrition. Nonetheless, my metabolism is wired to balloon up, and I have excised whole categories of foods from my life. My siblings' children are enormous. I had kids rather late in life, and put them on a sugar-free no processed food diet from birth, and both are slim and healthy. *Diet in infancy matters, as it determines body mass for the rest of one's life.*

It’s obvious you have never watched the likes of Bobby Thompson “The Little Waster” who was probably the forerunner of Billy Connolly “The Big Yin”, and without both of them pushing the boundaries of what was publicly acceptable humour we would probably not have Ricky. The Big Yin openly admitted he even used to invent his own swear words to avoid the censors, otherwise about 90% of his work would never have seen the light of day. Getafa yabasa was one such example. In fact in Billy’s younger days he was more frenetic in his pacing around the stage, and his gesticulating, his little table with drink on it all quite faithfully reproduced by Ricky. Both of the aforementioned ‘comedians’ were never really joke tellers, but more raconteurs, or very funny story tellers. Which is exactly what Ricky is, Ricky is merely following in their footsteps. Is he funnier? Well that is just subjective opinion, but I think you will find great pleasure in checking out Bobby and Billy on ytube.

There is legit research that points out the physiological difference between human populations that developed in different environments. The higher rates of obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure etc among certain groups is based on how the body metabolizes foods. High fat, high carb diets are extremely useful to hunter gather/ highly nomadic populations but lethal to more sedentary/agricultural groups. Magnify that over thousand of years and it becomes dominant in gene expressions. A super basic example would be high level athletes. The nutritional/energy requirements with them is far higher while they are performing but if they keep it up it becomes problematic.

[@eleveneleven572]

I took my cousin to lunch in the UK a few years ago. Adjacent to our table was one with four fat women in their 30's I guess. The restaurant had a "salad buffet" that you can eat as much as you want ahead of your main course. It had lots of fattening things and dressings. They piled up plates three times. Then the main courses were huge. Now I can eat but not that day......their gorging quite put me off and I left most of my meal, something I never do as the spectacle of them stuffing their faces right in front of me made me feel ill.

The missus and I went into an American Golden Corral buffet. Wow. The fatty disgusting food was a serious turn off, but the average client was worse. We never went back but now I know what Okra is, so there's that.

Tells it like it is. We Americans need to stop treating hugely fat people as a normal occurrence. And yes, it is also the food industry.

[@vickiepiere4017]

When have Americans treated fat people as a normal condition. They are the main root of all jokes and told their fatand sloppy

IT’S CALLED SHAPE SHIFTING

01:05 actually the pilots do have to take the weight distribution of passengers into consideration when handing out seats. Witch makes me wonder. Do they know in advance how many of these chubsters are gonna be on the plane or do they sometimes have to move people around when they board? Cause its got to make a big difference that some people weigh 3 times more than others, especially on smaller planes.
