Eat right, exercise, die anyway.
It’s not just what they eat, it is their lifestyle in its entirety that is driving that statistic
The article that was linked is as uninformative as it could be. It could have been a lot shorter and just as informative if it had said donuts and hot dogs are not health food.
If we only had a choice in regards to what we stuffed in our big fat faces. But, alas, we’re all helpless victims. Please big mammy gubmint, steal this donut from my hand… and the other donut from my other hand!!!… I can’t help myself!!!… I’m too weak!… too weak!!!… (sob!!!)… (lays head on table and sobs while licking leaked raspberry jelly from table top left from last donut).
The most voracious consumers of media pablum today could tell you that donuts and hot dogs are not health food, they are sex toys
Gotta run. I hear some donuts calling my name!
How insightful, people that eat ultra processed foods often are also overweight. I sure hope a big government grant paid for this completely obvious fact.
“Tax soft drinks!!”
“Waaaah! McDonald’s made me fat!”
Styrofoam, kale, soy and the Sasquatch’s school lunches.
That’s what everybody should be eating.
life will kill you.
Not into donuts 🍩
I’d much rather have ice cream 🍦 or cake 🍰
Seriously, when I work out on exercise machines and track my daily exercise via Fitbit, I know that it takes far too much exercise to burn off the calories in a couple of donuts.
Across the street from us is a night shift city cop. He is a real porker. He happens to be black. I don’t see how he could possibly pass any physical for active police duty.
I exercise virtually every day at the gym, climbing stairs, running 5K races, swimming, etc. Accoring to Fitbit, I do over 2500 miles a year. At 71, I can run circles around many who are half my age.
Most people who regularly eat donuts or other high sugar processed junk food also don’t watch calorie counts or pay attention to all the processed sugars,trans fats, etc. in their foods and do not exercise regularly.
Read the labels on processed foods when shopping at the grocery store. If there are multiple lines of ingredients you can’t even pronounce, do not purchase.
I’m at the point in life where eating what I want is one of the few joys left. Unfortunately I’ve found out I can no longer have chili dogs and pizza. But I’ll be damned if I’m giving up chips and cookies.
I have spent a good bit of my adult life exercising and trying to eat right, but i’ll be damned if I’m going to make it my religion. I’m tired of that and tired of viewing food as my enemy.
MMMMM DONUTS!!! MMMMM CAKE/DONUTS!!!
Damn it, I can’t have any until I get rid of the ten pounds that Santa brought me for the holidays. Married to a Sicilian who can cook and bake. At my age all I got left is food and an occasional cigar. Can’t cut the mustard properly anymore, but at least I can lick the jar.
Don’t be fucking with ma’ donuts…
Ask your self this….do I want 88 good years or 90 miserable?
Portion control is everything. Restaurant portions are the worst.I eat half of everything an skip the bread.
The question is simple really. Are you going to enjoy life or dread death? Few people actually like what the experts recommend for living a long life.
My wife’s 95 yo Granny was ordered not to eat chocolate or drink alcohol as it was bad for her. So of course every week, we took her a half dozen Hershey bars and put a shot of Makers Mark in her coffee. It eventually killed her. She died happy.
Bacon! I love bacon! I eat bacon at least five times a day. It helps take my mind off these horrible chest pains.
Cookies make me not mind the cancer so much. Oh, and alcohol helps me control the pain.
Sardines. Season brand canned sardines. Those are my new donuts. Baby steps.

Food Industry’s Secret Weapon (WHY Sugar is addictive & in 80% of Food)
Why sugar is 8x more addictive than cocaine, the man who smoked opium for 40 years with no ill effects, and how heroine was introduced in the USA after the WBTS as the non-addictive substitute for morphine. Whether drugs or food you’re better off using the less processed product.
When the FDA in 1978 advocated low fat high carbohydrate diet & introduced their new food pyramid, sugar was added in higher amounts to cancel the less pleasant taste caused by reducing fat in the food, leading to high obesity. If you want to eat well, be healthier and enjoy the taste of what you eat more, just invert the FDA food pyramid.
