Weird, you had Pizza Hut Sausage and Pepperoni a few days ago. They have a drive through - so isn't that fast food? Get over yourself.
Hahaha!! This! Hypocrite much
Hahaha I had a look too. I consider chinese take-out to be junk food. And all that MSG is not good for you either!0 -
Hehehehehe! The Pizza Hut is a couple times in the last few days, and the Chinese take-out seems like a norm to you as well! LMAO0

Of course I have something. i drink too much and I don't track it.. lol. I'm far from perfect. But I don't drink and then go complain that I had too many carbs and too much sugar or that i can't lose weight or whatever.
lol.. I didn't have pizza hut. I did have pizza. Pizza hut is gross. i used it because it has a high calories and i wanted to make sure it got counted right. and it was covered in veggies. lol. I also had qudoba a few weeks ago.. for the first and most likely last time. Pretty yucky and tasteless.
There is healthy fast food out there. I like noodles and co. it's healthy and you can see what's in the food you're eating it's all on their website.
No msg in the Chinese food. I can't eat it if it did.0 -
I could go for a salad on poutine. :happy:Man, I could go for some french fries. On a salad.0 -
Actually, that isn't true about Taco Bell.I don't understand how people can eat fast food! Taco Bell can't even call their meat beef because it contains so little actual meat and then they stuff it with chemical and flavoring. Mcdonalds and burger king never molds. How is that possible! You tell people this and they still go and order a big mac! So gross. At least KFC uses real chicken, although they fry the health benefits right out of it and Wendy's uses real American raised beef. still tastes gross.. I also tried explaining to one of my friends that if a salad has 500 calories in it, then it's not healthy... they just don't get it.
I haven't eaten it in years.
No, not true.My friend was a general manager at Taco Bell.0 -
Pizza is classified as a vegetable...so your gold.0

OP, with all due respect... you know Pizza Hug, TGIFridays... those places are virtually no different than fast food. It's prepackaged , processed food thrown together for order... just not as fast as fast food, and it's more expensive. Noodles & Co is, essentially, fast food, and Chinese Takeout is notorious for not being quite what it's advertised as, with some of the highest sodium and MSG content of any takeout.
If you're losing weight and making it work, great. I don't like diary shaming, so I don't think it's necessarily great or effective to go, "Lol, hypocrite!" to you. BUT, your initial post did have something of a holier than thou, how can people eat there mentality.
People are going to bristle, because you eat the same **** under a different name... and hell, if you made it work, great; other people make fast food work into their calorie allotments and lose weight, keep cholesterol and BP great, etc.
But, er... you're fooling yourself if you think someone in the back of an Applebee's is delicately preparing fresh chicken breast they picked up from a local butcher to cook for you.0 -
*sigh* some people on this thread/site are ridiculous.
fast food is bad for you. across the board. no matter WHAT you order. all fast food places use the lowest quality ingredients they possibly can so it can be as cheap as possible and make THEM as much money as possible.
however, if you wanna eat it, go for it. that's your prerogative.
Chipotle is actually really good for you if you get the right stuff - but that's because they use local ingredients, grass fed beef, free range chicken, etc. But if you'll notice, their prices are also higher than most fast food. Coincidence? Nope.0 -

Maybe it wasn't your intention to offend anyone but it is the way you came off. Like everyone who eats there is dumb and you're too smart.
I personally love Taco Bell even though I don't eat it as much. I make my own tacos at home almost once a week. And living in Queens, NYC I can just drive 5 minutes and get truly authentic Mexican tacos on Roosevelt Ave and no its not from chipotles, those are tacos but no its not Mexican food.
My feeling towards your post is......Tacos rule!!!! Please respect the taco.
LOL Yes. tacos rule!0 -

Lmao this is genius!0 -
Its made to taste relatively good...and its cheap. That's why people eat it. I admit to still eating it on occasion, although not nearly as much as I used to. Once a month I figure wont kill me. And I like Chick -Fil- A.0

How do you get the videos on here?0

yay for takeaways, in moderation they are great, i had a chicken kebab tonite, enjoyed every mouthful lol0

Are you looking for a medal? I rarely eat fast food but don't feel the need to berate those who do.
So ya woop de woop for you
I don't need to add anything because this is exactly what I think.
People eat fast food, get over it.0 -
As a shareholder of MCD, I strongly encourage everyone to run out and get some fries. Stat!0

*sigh*
well.. ok.
I guess i'm bad.
sorry for posting something i was thinking about.
and sorry it came off like i was holier then thou or something.
not my intention.0 -
I don't see the need to apologize. What we need to be mad as hell about is how we are being fed GMOs without our knowledge. Most other civilized countries have outlawed them.
Most fast food is "fat food". Those who want to be healthy will stay away from fast food restaurants as much as possible. I've built a few restaurants for Taco Bell and McDonalds in my day but those days are behind me. Like giving up sugar the fat can be difficult to give up as well. I am really trying to eat things that are not processed. If it doesn't come out of the ground or off the plant or tree in the form it is in, I'd rather not have it. Some things I am still making exceptions for eg. almond milk, yogurt, tortillas.
This year I am working on giving up sugar and wheat. Both are a challenge for me but it is a process. I am making progress but not where I'd like to be yet.
Regarding the salads, I used to be a Thousand Island lover years ago and have evolved. Today I like the taste of Balsamic Vinegar on it exclusively. I think I'd skip a salad if I had to have salad dressing. It is interesting how our thoughts and habits can adapt over time. I remember how weird I thought it was when a friend told me they ate salads without any dressing and the first time I met a vegetarian I thought wow what a weirdo. What is even more strange to me today is why we want to eat foods that they've passed legislation on the acceptable amounts of fecal matter it can contain and still be sold.0 -
Said way better then i did. I guess if i had posted it more like that i wouldn't be getting hated on so much.

MSG is in a lot of things....
What about the Papa Johns? What about the Arbys? Same thing as everywhere you mentioned.
Don't say you don't eat fast food when you do... also don't critize those who do when you are as well.0 -
I think you posted this in the wrong place. This is the message board, what you're looking for is blogs. It's the one in between "groups" and "find members".0

When I eat fast food, I get the squirts later. So, I tend to eat it very infrequently. Is it gross? Yes, but sometimes, it's just easy. I haven't had it in over a year, but road trips, days at an amusement park, or traveling, are all times when I might just go for it. I can't imagine choosing it though. Like, you're at home, have food, and think, I'm going to drive to Taco Bell for dinner. Yeah, that would never happen in my world. But, I see grown ups do it all the time. Whateves. I do *kitten* they think is crazy, like workout 6 days a week. People think I'm bonkers because of that.0

Lol, you're eating the same food at chain restaurants! You're just paying for more service!0 -

boom goes the dynamite.
love this.
people who eat fast food: do the research. will I get it every once in a blue moon? yes. do i make up for it by saying "it fits in my macros!!!!"? hell no. it's still bad for you either way.0 -

Generally people accept apologies when they come off as genuine and aren't slathered in sarcasm BUT on the flipside you probably burnt off some of the non-pizza hut pizza (seriously? Pizza is fast food unless homemade) from all the worrying about what other people do regarding their fast food eating habits.0 -

Fast food is poison.
So why are YOU eating it?
Pizza hut, chinese places, Papa Johns, Arbys?0 -
I make wonderful salads that exceed 500 calories thank you very much.0
