    i used to eat it all the time in my 20's. there was a span where i hadnt eaten fast food of any variety for almost 4 years, due to living arrangements and other life complications i was forced to eat out more than i'd like not too long ago again (had to stomache taco hell and subway again). but ive been back strong again for the last 5 months and it always makes me think WTF when i drive by jack in the box and see a never ending line of people waiting for their hot mess from the window. needless to say the smell, and even the thought really makes me sick. its just unfortunate how far removed society is from what REAL food even is or how to even attempt to make something with it. convenience is killing health. makes me want to hammer smash that little red "easy" button every one likes to push all the time. i feel super jaded about fast food (obviously) but i know first hand how damaging it is, and its destroying this country. people who dont use crack, meth, heroine dont really understand the grip it has over people. but i think if they put their junk/fast food/sugar/deep fried/sodium obsession in perspective they would have a lot better understanding of what its like. it makes me laugh to think about someone not being able to go without something as ridiculous as a cheeseburge, fried foods or even pounds of sugar every day

    Yep me too, especially KFC *vomit*
  • Definitely not! I hate the smell, it makes me gag, and I absolutely hate the taste of it!
    When my friends get food when we're shopping I'll either bring food with me or buy something from another shop! I honestly can't stand it...

    I too am repulsed by fast food. The sheer amount of grease.... ugh. It makes my stomach hurt just thinking about it.

    My question for all the people grossed out by it:


    Did you enjoy it before you started losing weight?

    I figure if I'm going to have burgers/fries, pizza etc.... it's going to be good food. A GOOD burger, a GOOD pizza. Most fast food joints don't make good burgers/pizza.

    Not repulsed by fast food, just not impressed by the quality of the food at fast food joints.
