So apparently
obesity is contagious. I... hate "studies" like these since I feel that facts are neutral but people will obviously use them to support their opinions, it's not going to change anyone's mind on either side. True scientific studies show the correlations and they DON'T automatically equal cause&effect. And as if the fat fire really needs THAT kind of fuel. sheesh.
Go vegetarian to save moneyI actually don't eat that much meat now that I cook for myself, I just don't even think about it much. I have some chicken breast and tilapia fillets in my freezer, and I buy the occasional sausage but most of what I eat is beans and rice or big pots of pasta. Because they're easy and I'm lazy. X) My food budget gets blown by buying random shit like bottled drinks and going out to lunch. I'm trying to cut back but dammit there is some really great CHEAP mexican food in this neighborhood @_@ But I don't buy the "I can't afford to eat healthy" excuse either. People assume that means eating organic, um no, it means eating more fruits and vegetables. I buy a lot of canned fruit (and now that I make smoothies all the time I'll buy fresh fruit and freeze it) and frozen veg and guys, that stuff is cheap.
And ummm... now that my drama-wound has scabbed over I'm so, so tempted to rip it off omfg I wanna googlestalk to see if anyone's talking about me. My awesome friends, please please talk me out of it I don't want to have another internet stroke halp
wow that was wanktastically cryptic.
