Why do people eat such crap?

[V-G]

At the grocery store yesterday...

1) Walking by the salad aisle, two fat women had their cart stuffed with processed crap like fish fingers and pizza pops. One of them said to the other "yah, let's not buy bagged salad anymore since we never eat it"

I was thinking "oh man, you definitely need some salad"

2) Waiting in line and the people in front of me had $200 (!!!) worth of crap like pizza pops, fish fingers and microwave dinners. Surprise surprise - they were fat. You could eat healthier AND save money by buying fresh and cooking yourself.

Ok, now I understand that maybe sometimes, those things are convenient, but they sure as hell shouldn't make up a bulk of your diet. It was disgusting.

OK you fatsos, confess, what makes you do a silly thing like that? I know you are lurking and thinking that I am an arse or a British donkey.

Many people do not know how to cook, which is why they buy prepared meals. They probably thought fish sticks were nutritious. I wouldn't eat prepackaged lettuce, either. It doesn't taste like whole lettuce you cut yourself and it is less nutritious so, they probably made the right choice there.

I bought LeanCusines for when I am at work all night and need dinner. But I can't eat them. I find they taste like chemicals. Even the smell of them microwaving is nauseating. So, I stocked up on canned fish.

V-G,

I can admit that i am chubby / fat.

I never eat fast food. Once in a blue moon i may eat a bag of chips. I eat some other snacks like ice cream, but not the way you describe it.

I think it all has to do with peoples motabolism. My mangers can eat a box of pizza daily for lunch and still remain fit. And i know he doesnt have time to go to the gym because he has a family of 3 kids and a wife.

I also try to go to the gym daily (this weekend i got too lazy though. Memorial Day). Do I lose weight. Well, i have been going to the gym for about a month. Lost about 10 pounds.

So, thats why i didnt really comment on anything else.
