In the U.S., we eat more than 1,000,000 animals an hour
In 1972, we spent 3 billion a year on fast food - today we spend more than 110 billion
Left unabated, obesity will surpass smoking as the leading cause of preventable death in America |

| No ing way in hell you eat 1.000.000 animals an hour. That would be truth if it considers the bacterias in the food. |

They're talking about the whole country, mate: there are 250 million Americans, so it's not really that hard to believe :) |

Lira, I dont think thats possible! For example, a pig after you kill it you get around 60kg of meat. Let's supposed they kill 10.000 pigs an hour. That's 600.000kg or 600TONS of pig/hour. Times 24 hours per day, that's 14.400.000kg or 14.400TONS of pig in a DAY! Not to mention the other 990.000 animals per hour still left to be killed. It's totally impossible. |

| I'm an American and I hate fast food. The closest to fast food for me is once in a while I will eat at Subway. I am definitely not overweight. |

| I'm an American. I hate fast food. But often that's all I can afford. And I'm nowhere near being fat. |

TACO BELL IS JUST SO GOOD I CAN'T HELP MYSELF:crazy: :crazy: :crazy:
I was in Brazil last summer and I saw this store called "The American Traveler" so I went inside to check it out...it was all like one piece bathing suits for obese chicks and the ugliest clothes imaginable. Even all the fast food places down tehre were called like "Billy's Burgers" and other American names. It was embaressing b/c my 100 person American tour group seriously doubled the # of fat people in Brazil for the two weeks I was down there. |

and another funny thing, some bitch tried to take McDix to court claiming she got fat off it and no one told her that's what would happen when you eat alot of it. |
