		<description>I used to eat a lot of fast food when I was younger, but a while back, Wendy&#039;s sold me a fly with some chili around it... I eat at home a LOT more these days.</description>

		<description>I am so glad that I am not the only one who was bothered by that Popeye&#039;s commercial. I found it racist and filled with sterotypes. My husband just rolled his eyes and called me Sister Soulja when I made my case but that commercial is not right!!!!</description>

		<description>Did you ever see the video of the two female KFC employees who used the giant kitchen sink at work as their own personal hot tub?  Like Cinco said, fast food places are the only guilty parties. I saw a piece on Primetime Live in the early 90s about some of the foul practices of supermarkets (extending the expiration dates on food, soaking meat in bleach to make is seem fresh, etc.).  I try not to think about the bad things that do happen with food... if I dwelled on it, I would starve myself.  

I saw that Popeye&#039;s commercial tonight and it made me think of you (because I had scanned this post a couple of days earlier). About the only stereotype they didn&#039;t have &quot;Annie&quot; do is fold her arms and say &quot;Mmm hmmm&quot;.</description>

		<description>You Go Thembi!

I don&#039;t do fast foods. And I would definitely encourage people with children to curb their consumerism down if it is a regular menu item.

I am disturbed by the lack of proper nutritional habits among AA&#039;s. Especially for our children. The lastest studies indicate that more AA children are already overweight, showing the early signs of diabetes and heart problems.

I have always cooked fresh food. My kids ate fresh foods and balanced meals-just like their mothers and fathers before them.  I did food prep when I was a younger woman. No one except the staff knows what goes on behind the doors in the kitchen. Some of it is definitely positive but there are always going to be some nasty folks on the payroll.  I eat out. I like to sit down and be served. I&#039;m really choosy about where I go to eat. 

I also cut my meat consumption in half.  Thanks to my mom&#039;s encouragement during Lent to return to a traditional family practice of no meat at least three days out of week. I like the mental and physical effect well enough to continue the practice. I am working towards adding two more days without meat or polutry.</description>

		<description>Fast food places are not the only culprits...stuff can happen to your food anywhere.  Anything can be found.

That being said the Burger King commercial is offensive.  Hopefully the blogs will help it disapear never to return.</description>

		<description>I loathe that Burger King commercial.  With layoffs or the threat of being layed off being on almost everyone&#039;s mind you would think fold would step their game up.  How in the heck do these people STILL have jobs??  The advertising genius that thought of it AND the exec that approved it...You&#039;re FIRED!  I mean, you&#039;d think that the folk left with jobs would be the cream of the crop.  Screams of nepotism to me! Somebody knows somebody but NOBODY knew anything about focusing on your target audience. Kids meals and Booty is Booty is a bad play on words ALL DAY LONG.

...And Annie...I pretty much thought the same thing.  The only thing that was missing was a scarf wrapped around her head and her saying honey chile!  

In regards to getting random stuff in your food... that&#039;s why you say your blessing before you eat.</description>

		<description>That bolt is all the iron you&#039;d need for the next two presidential administrations and the next 5 British Parliaments after that, though.

But on some real walkie-talkie, I&#039;ll put Pizza Hut up against just about any other pizza this side of Naples.  People scoff at Pizza Hut, I scarf Pizza Hut.</description>
