Overweight and obesity are defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that presents a risk to health. In adults, a body mass index (BMI) over 25 is considered overweight, and over 30 is obese.

This a fake meme? I assume so. That sounds so gross. You'd have to be buying that for an orphanage or prison. One of, if not the only Patnet posts that kind of wants to make me puke. And I like mac and cheese.

No, it is real. It is just a bucket with 180 packets of pasta and 180 packets of the cheese sauce. 20-year shelf life, so put it in the survival shelter.

Nothing new. Women have been paying for many things throughout history by doing their squats over the right men.

Those are solely used by fat people for no reason that don't want to walk. 14-16 years old I worked at a grocery store. 95% didn't have a handicap thing in the windshield and I was in charge of picking them up when they'd just dump them in the parking lot. We're talking blocking parking spots in a busy store. Fat people are lazy, selfish and want attention because they sure as shit won't get it walking around. Worst of the worst when I had that first "real" job.

On July 16, 2025, a study was released in a prestigious scientific journal examining the factors contributing to obesity across 34 populations worldwide.

The study arose from rising obesity rates, especially in industrialized countries where total energy expenditure explains only about 10% of obesity's increase.

Examining 4,213 adults aged 18 to 60, researchers found that calorie intake, especially from ultra-processed foods, drives obesity more than physical activity levels.

Herman Pontzer, the study’s lead author, emphasized that consuming too many calories plays a central role in driving obesity in developed countries, particularly due to processed foods interfering with feelings of fullness and encouraging excess eating.

The study implies that reducing calories from ultra-processed foods may be the most effective strategy to combat the global obesity epidemic.

Is this some method that Coke is using to keep Coke allowed for EBT purchase?

Interesting angle!

Probably. I drink it 2-5 times a year and it's the cane sugar type. Kids don't have a ton, but when they do we get the stuff from Mexico in the bottles. Or so I have to believe. It does taste different/better. I just don't like caffeine. Turns me into Michael J Fox.

In the PRNY, just before Passover, they put out "Passover Coke" made with real sugar. They'll bend the knee for the hebes, but not for anyone else.

Apologies to @Patrick. But this shit is evil. Real sugar for the Jews, and HFC's for the Goys.

@stereotomy Companies will do what makes money, and you're free to buy Passover Coke as well. If it's just Passover, then Jews are also drinking HFC most of the time. Anyway, all sugary drinks are poison.

If you want a bigger "conspiracy", note that most factory food is marked with a U in a circle, meaning the company has paid the Union of Orthodox Rabbis to certify that the food is kosher. And there are smaller competing kosher certification groups with other symbols.

There's not much benefit to being a Jew in America, except for good business networking opportunities at synagogues.

On the other hand, Jews in Israel benefit a lot at the expense of US taxpayers from the influence of AIPAC. I think that lobbying Congress on behalf of any foreign country should not be allowed, and dual passports should be banned. You're either American or you're not. China does not allow dual passports to avoid that conflict of loyalties.

90% agree with this. But, what if they are allies? My former boss has dual US and Italian citizenship (born here). He plans to send his kids to college in Italy for free outside of lodging and flights. That's a massive savings. He's Italian but he's American first. If you can take advantage of loop holes I'd say do it. 2 kids, 8 years of tuition for free. Most people would try to take advantage of that.

He planned to stay here the last time I talked to him, but he has no loyalty to Italy. Just wants free school for his kids. I hate the guy, but it's kind of smart. I kind of hope his kids stay there permanently because if his offspring are like him I don't want them in this country. Dude was a whacko.

Ironic from the man whole took nature's wholesome organic plums from his backyard and converted them into alcoholic swill via yeast piss. Added sugar to it, to boot. Besides, Sundrop is the exemption to the "all sugary drinks are poison."

Fermented sugar is much healthier though. Pretty much everything fermented is good for you. Also if you run all day and readily deplete your glycogen store you can have quite a lot of sugar.

Pretty soon it will all be alcohol instead of sugar! There are some health benefits to alcohol in moderation, but I don't think there are any to sugar.

Why would Sundrop be any better?

I have a Chinese friend who once told me his investment strategy of owning Coke stock and stock in dialysis centers. That way he makes profits both from causing diabetes and from treating it!

Because I like to drink it. Same logic as the claim of the health benefits of alcohol in moderation by folks who like to get a buzz on. Alcohol in moderation is metabolized by the liver, but even that is toxic process. Any amount that gets past the liver can damage every organ in the body. The medical press overwhelmingly pushes that there is no safe level of alcohol consumption, but you may find a puff piece on the Today Show types claiming that alcohol may have something like heart health benefits.
