Wow, it's like you've known me my entire life. Except, like, the opposite of that.

HOW CAN I LIVE!!??
...How can I live.
No, it is really simple. If you look for foods that are bad for you, and you state that they make a great shopping list for you, I do not need to know you to know that you do not respect your body. Simple as that.
Taste is only one part of the body. Letting that dominate over your whole system is an imbalance. But I am not telling you to correct it. Only you can decide to do that

Holy Hell, I have a 1.8 quart, five serving bottle of tea here that only has 115 grams. That's insane. A 12 oz can of Pepsi only has 41 grams of sugar.
21 teaspoons. 4 grams= one teaspoon. It's basically HFCS with fruit flavoring.

It's only "simple as that" if you're an idiot. Your lectures are woefully misplaced. You don't know me, you don't know the shape I'm in and you're just spouting third grade-level health platitudes like they amount to anything at all. Not to pull this particular card, but you sort of forced the issue - I'm fairly confident that I'm in better shape than most. I complete 4-5 CrossFit WoDs a week, I run 6-7 miles a week, paleo diet (with some freedom over the weekend to enjoy food) and a active-duty Marine who has always scored first class on PFT/CFTs. You're simply talking to the wrong person on this issue, bud.
... and all in response to what couldn't have been more obviously a joke than if it had been delivered by Robin Williams at his most coked out.

ITT: why most of America is fat.
The replies make me cringe.
Especially this one.
You know what this is? This is rationalising eating extremely unhealthy food with almost no nutritional value by saying 'well look it's not as bad as that other extremely unhealthy food with almost no nutritional value.
Imagining a parent saying to themselves that they are responsible parents by using this book to decide what to feed their kids pisses me off.
Eat this instead picture should have a salad or a balanced proper meal.
Jesus christ.
This is the equivalent of cut off a toe, not your dick.

This book series is a highly entertaining and educational read. It covers pretty much everything out there, including everything mentioned in this thread so far.
Especially this one.

Men's Health is making a killing off of perpetuating the lies of the Lipid Hypothesis.

It does not matter what shape you are in.
What matters is that when you go into a thread and made an opening comment like you did, you will have people reacting. Then, you can promptly overreact ("I am hitler, omg"), then once you gather some more reactions, you can pull out the "I am fitter than most of you, fuck off" card out of your lean, muscular body.
Good for you, I guess.
I train 8-10 times a week, but I do not see why I should do sandbagging-style posts somewhere else and make ambigious posts that could easily be mistaken for something else entirely. And who the fuck cares how much I train, or how fit I am?

Actually eating paleo tacos made with these: http://realsustenance.com/flax-tortillas-glutengrainstarcheggcornsoynut-free/ right now. Shaved jicama, meat, cilantro, onions, tabasco (NOT PALEO DON'T CARE DAMMIT)
But, I mean, I do disrespect my body, just not in the way V suggested.

Or, maybe try to not make idiotic statements about people you've never met based on two sentences. And "people" didn't react. You did. Poorly. Don't try to create a false sense of solidarity with people who don't exist.
And how the hell are you going to try to pull the "who cares how fit I am" card? This entire thing is because you decided to make judgement calls on my health and intelligence level based on a joke. Spoiler: I am not literally Hitler, either.
Just...stop.
Why not just use corn tortillas?

Because when phasing in-and-out of my health kicks, I tried the flaxseed ones out. They're pretty damn tasty. Paleo helps me cut weight when I need to, so I go with it as much as possible without turning into a preacher of the health church, no-fun allowed sect.

Only the finest, lotioned butt-wipes for this tuckus.
Yeah, because you reacted with this:
To someone who does not exist.
You are very formidable at turning this into an attack, so you can keep at it if you would like. Especially when in your head, "not respecting your body" is suddenly a judgment call on intelligence level or health. No, it is not. If you are comfortable with what you do, no random poster from an internet forum can make you react the way you did in this thread, imho.
Anyway, good luck with paleo. Would be too bland for me as I am a vegetarian

God, I hope you don't act this way around people. It really comes off douchey.

Nobody believes the lame-ass backpedaling. It's fine, though. We all eventually say some stupid shit. Next time just think before you leap to silly conclusions.

Moderation doesn't seem to exist for me, unfortunately. When I had Twix last week, I ate two king-size packs and smeared them all with peanut butter to boot. :\
It is.

I know. Felt like I was one step away from going Navy SEAL with 9000 confirmed kills meme. I don't have any confirmed kills, though, so I couldn't mention 'em.
My favourite microwave meal.. This hits the spot every time.

Not even the worst. At least least the digornio has some flavor / somewhat recognizable ingredients. The off brands are on the level of pet food
Honestly, My pets eat better food than I do.
You mean this bastard of a meal?
Anyone that can eat that and not die must be the chosen one.
What? Nothing cooked? What the hell? Just fruit and raw veggies?
As much as processed foods are still bad for us (compared to freshly prepared stuff), certain UK processed foods like the one you posted aren't as bad ingredients-wise compared to the ones over in the US.
