I really think you are obsessed with me, dude.


Wishful thinking on your part I think. Sometimes its really just someone calling you out for being stupid.

You need to divorce your wife and start marrying me. Obviously I am incredibly important to you.

Hi Dizzy, I agree with you mostly except the bolded part. Personally, I am well aware of how unhealthy the junk that I eat is, however I can't stop myself, because it tastes so good. I have access to and money for healthy food like fresh veggies and fruits everyday, however I simply must have my matchachillo (which is similar to Starbucks' frappucino except worse cause it contains ice cream) at least twice a week, otherwise I feel deprived.


Eating sweets or unhealthy things that taste good is fine, but there are people who eat fast food for every meal and who consider frozen boxed food as a "home cooked meal"

I am not a health nut by any means, I probably eat much worse than you if you consider a couple sweet drinks per week as unhealthy :P

That's a Korean drink isn't it? There is a Korean Cafe near me and I think I've seen it there, not tried though

Dizzy you don't know what a chillo is? You must not live in BC, then. It's from the chain Blenz, they only have stores in BC. They have expanded to Alberta only recently.

There are a couple flavors for chillos, my favorite is matchachillo, which is green-tea matcha powder blended with ice cubes and ice cream. They use real ice cream, so the drink is incredibly rich, creamy, and addictive.

The prevalence of frozen chicken strips, TV dinner style meals accompanied by pop or another beverage pushing 25+ grams of sugar, its disgusting. Right there is another reason to offer subsidy on fresh food. Lowering the cost of our public healthcare long term. Obesity rates just keep climbing and will have a cost on our healthcare system, already is, which is all tax payer funded.

Which of the maratimes are you from? I am NS.

I don't think subsidizing healthy/fresh food would help much. The reason people eat junk is because it tastes good, not because it's more affordable.
