Originally posted by Paradox Lost Yeah, I'm largely referring to the types of influences that exist within the family, but since you brought it up, the broader communal influences regarding matters of nutrition is something that really can't be overlooked. In San Francisco, for example, there's been a major push at providing better avenues for healthier eating in some of the more economically depressed areas, since they tend to be inundated with local markets that offer little more than your average gamut of junk food (chips, cookies, soda, etc). When your immediate area consists largely of stores like this, your flexibility in making sound health choices becomes rather limited indeed.

Yeah the familial aspect needs to be reformed in obvious fashion. Unfortunately, it is not exactly cheap in the US to eat properly. I grew up in a suburb of Sacramento, and boy were most of the people around us, and including us, on the lower end of the economic spectrum. Eating in a healthy manner was just not an option when you have to feed a large family.

That is an awesome thing. Quite frankly, we need more of those types of programs. One area though I can see where large improvements can be made, is at school. The lunches that the school makes could easily be better. Too bad the farm bill totally removes that ability.

Hasn't the elimination of traditional junk items from your the cafeteria menu been all the rage in California for the past few years?

I know in the Bay Area, they've steadily done away with things like soft drinks, and your typical grease saturated entrees (you know, things that actually made lunchtime something worth looking forward to ), and not without controversy, of course.

Not sure how it is in So Cal, but they've been aggressively phasing in healthier substitutes rather quickly up here.

To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.

To be fair, I am soon to turn 26, so I don't know what it is like in primary and secondary school anymore. When I finished school though, it was as unhealthy as ever. Horribly greasy foods, lots of sugar, and lots of fatty stuff.

Also, I grew up in NorCal, so I dunno what it was like to go to school here in primary or secondary either.

Okay, that's cool, but if you were to take 50 shamus, how many would have a genetic or legitimate health disorder claim?

That is the point Jay and I are making. We are not discounting the people that ACTUALLY have the issue, just the claim that seemingly every shamu seems to make.
