There’s a reason Americans are so fat, you know.
And it’s definitely not “sedentary lifestyle.”
Okay, so: imagine the life of a medieval cobbler. He probably lived in an apartment above his shop, and probably didn’t have much reason to leave the shop more than once or twice a week after he got to a certain age. He could send his kids out to buy food and other necessities. Maybe he’d go to the pub on a Saturday, but it was probably less than a five minute walk.
He wasn’t fat.
There are a lot of healthy people who work on computers and don’t do huge gym routines every day.
It’s the food. This food people eat is just poison. It’s the processing that is the issue. It’s not even gluten (though I think the anti-gluten arguments might be valid, it’s such a small thing – mostly people who avoid gluten are avoiding processed foods).
Several migrants confessed to The Post Friday the meals served up at New York City asylum seeker shelters are so “bad” they often just trash them — with some opting to sneakily cook in their rooms instead.
Their claims of terrible food came a day after it was revealed thousands of uneaten, taxpayer-funded meals prepared for asylum seekers are tossed each day.
“No one likes the food,” Jesus Alberto, 31, from Venezuela, told The Post outside the Roosevelt Hotel — the Big Apple’s main migrant intake center.
“Without lying, it’s bad, bad.”
Migrant mom, Johana Roa, 23, admitted the breakfast is varied, but not to her taste.
“The breakfast they give us is very sweet. They give us pancakes, donuts and cookies for breakfast at 6am. It is too sweet to give to my daughter, so I just take a few things.”
Hahahah.
Imagine that this primitive understands “I can’t feed all this sugar to my kids,” while white Americans give their kids literal breakfast cereal.
I guess advertising works?
(These cereals advertise themselves as healthy for kids and they are 50% sugar.)
“Nothing healthy apart from eggs and fruit, apples and oranges. No oats,” she added.
As for the rest of the meals, she added: “The food is very cold and they don’t let us heat anything. You can’t heat the food,” migrant mom, Johana Roa, 23, said.
However, she admitted to keeping a rice cooker in the Roosevelt shelter room she shares with her 2-year-old daughter daughter which they use to make meals.
“They don’t let us cook so the mothers have rice pots we cook with. We make rice and meat in the rice pot in the room,” Roa said.
“I try to cook as much as I can in our room so my daughter doesn’t eat too much food from the street. It’s not healthy.”
Fellow mom, Alexandra Salas — who has been staying at the Roosevelt for seven months — said she, too, won’t feed her kids the cold meals.
Well. There you have it.
These primitives are also smart enough to look at the lumbering beasts walking the streets of American cities and make the connection to this food.
Meanwhile, the government refuses to regulate food. But they tell us they care so much about our health that they have to test experimental gene therapies on us to stop us from dying of the flu.
