Amidst the insanely large group of freshman who arrived this weekend were scattered the few additional international students who didn’t need the three week September course. One of these girls is from Georgia, and is one of the most gorgeous people here.
“Did y’all notice how they don’t have any real fried food here? I miss having some deep-fried chicken or vegetables.”
Deep-fried vegetables, I think to myself.
“Maybe,” I suggest, “that’s why there aren’t any fat people here.” (Which is true–there are approximately zero fat people in England).
“No!” She protests, “some people just have fat genes!”
Amazingly, those genes seem to have developed entirely independently in those former Europeans who’ve decided to live in America.
Ps. They eat so fucking well here. You know all those food-restrictions that the EU keeps getting fined for by the WTO? Guess what? They keep people healthy here!

Because the job of a government is to make its people healthy.

Oh I actually happen to agree with the EU on this particular WTO idiocy–it’s one of the (admittedly few) examples of free trade doing exactly the wrong thing.
America needs to realize that we’ve basically told the government “we don’t care what we eat as long as it’s convenient,” which has allowed them to go ahead and foster businesses that feed us shit (conveniently).
The problem is laziness: if we weren’t too lazy to go to the store twice a week, maybe we would buy food that wasn’t more preservative than food. Etc, etc, etc…
