sandwiches & servings! Boycott? Should we boycott the restaurants that come up with monstrosities like the "Double Whopper" and the "Baconator"? Why don't they just call it what it is: "The Assinator"? You might as well just slap it on your thighs and watch your jeans expand!
One Nation: I agree with you. I have educated myself about how unhealthy BK and other fast food restaurants are--I haven't eaten at BK in years. Did you know that BK fries are sprayed with a combo of salt and fat so that they have a texture that absorbs more grease when they are deep-fried? Yum!

If I do eat fast food, I usually get a small hamburger, and a plain baked potato, usually from Wendy's...I don't drink soda, either...and I am not a fat American, but I am very picky about my food and where it comes from and how it is prepared.
John M: Every kid ought to have to watch that film in 4th or 5th grade....a little education can go a long way toward setting proper habits! I've been after my son to quit drinking soda, to no avail. Finally, it paid off when I showed him article that it can cause weak bones--he plays hockey and football and can't risk a break--who knew what it would take, but I am so glad he is off the sugar!
 
Or you could just go there once in a while and get a normal sized burger.

If people get fat from eating that stuff on a regular occasion then it's their own damn fault. I don't see why anyone should boycott it.
 
Yea I would boycott this stuff, or atleast add on a tax of a dollar or so to go to the healthcare costs that it is causing. Humans used to survive meal by meal and expend a lot of calories, now they eat huge fattening meals and sit inside all day. Most people at my college complain that they're fat inbetween mouthfulls of potato chips and they ask me how i stay so in shape and i tell them because i dont put junk like burgers and soda in me and I work out every day, then I'm looked at as odd.
 
No its because todays youth are just plain lazy.When i was youg we played outside all day every day.Now they play vid games
