Which is why the obese in this country should subsidize health care for the rest of us, not the other way around.

someone made a comment yesterday about why so many here are obese. i said 'yeah, cause everything is fried with gravy on it'.

we've walked into, and then right back out of restaurants around here many times. i will not eat where everything is breaded and fried. cooking is a regional thing, just like many other things... and i guess folks down here don't know that frying food adds 40% more calories to the food they're ruining....

oh, and biscuits served with EVERYTHING.

I'm still positive that I'm the only person who has ever starved in New Orleans.
