Default Is it just me...

...Or is the American Public getting fatter? Im not trying to single Americans out, there are a few chunky Canadian kids too, just not as many. It just seems whenever we get pictures or film footage from my relatives, there are always a pile of fat people in the backgrounds. I see it alot on the news too, fat people, everywhere.

And i want to add how i like what McDonalds is doing with there vegatarian Salads and burgers...but ive read the signs...the McVeggie burgers may contain meat...and one of the topings on the Salad could be Chicken. Someone should tell the higherpowers at McDonalds that chicken isnt a vegitable, unlike the millions of mindless drones eating there.

That's just the media playing tricks on your simple mind. America is full of healthly, lean people. We enjoying playing sports, exercising, and eating healthy food.

I'll have to disagree with your McDonalds statement. Saying that millions of McDonald's customers are 'mindless drones' is an ignorant, sweeping generalization. I know a lot of mindful, independent people that consume McDonald's food.

Oh well if Americans are getting fatter. We make decisions on our own and I guess thats what Americans decide.

Mcdonalds doesnt force people to eat their food. People choose to do it. Get the facts straight.

too many stereotypes I'm about to explode Ahhh!

I eat McDonalds like every week, but I play basketball, play DDR, and do an assortment of athletic things. Not fat...

Nor do I know a vast amount of fat people...

a lot of the people I see around me aren't fat either...

You once spoke about selective reading in this forum, so when you see photos from your relatives might you have selective seeing?

OH MY GOD!!

again back to the selective reading. I never said it was just McDonalds. I never said they were a source of it. I never said McDonalds makes people fat. I even said i like what they are doing. And dont argue me with McDonalds, I work there, so i know what goes into everything. If you read correctly, i never ever said that McDonalds made people fat, i never even specified WHAT made these people fat. You people need to stop being so ancy to start up an argument and spend thse precious moments reading, for the love of god please. READ THE GOD DAMN POST AGAIN!!!

The American public is getting fatter...statistics prove this. I'm sure many other countries fall under the same category, too.

The Earth is slowly becoming a gigantic fat ass

You have yet to redeem yourself for labeling millions of McDonald's customers as 'mindless drones'.

Hey Fonz, I'm going out on a limb here, but my response to your post never said:
"Stop saying McDonalds is making people fat"

You've got selective reading too, and I think the majority of this forum has selective reading. All I said what I eat McDonalds and I'm not fat, and then... without mentioning McDonalds at all I said the people around me including friends aren't fat.

Stop overreacting, your the one making the stereotypes and expecting people not to react. Everyone will have their own opinions about the subject matter.... ok? Don't OMG this and OMG that when someone disagrees with you.

EDIT: I worked at McDonalds too, and Burger King....too greasy for me now...

So what Fonz is saying is: McDonalds suck ass. Right? Well they do, (but not their breakfast! Thats good!).

I totally agree with that. Some Americans are getting pretty fat, theres no doubt.

And about your relatives being fat, its not McDonalds fault, its theyre own. They eat what they choose to, be it chicken, beef, pork, or whatever, its they own fault.

One thing bothers me though, Fonz, youre an American right? So why do you hate them when you are one? Its like youre racist to your own race(Is there a word for that, BTW, because I find none).
