Prince Charles, you are stupid.

i'm sure most of you heard about how prince charles suggested that "mcdonald's should be banned forever". if you haven't, it's at about 3:20 in this video. He suggests that "getting rid of mcdonald's is the key to improving physical fitness in the world."
RIIIIGHT.
get rid of ONE fast food chain and suddenly people will be inspired to excersize and actually take care of themselves! oh sure...pure genious! that's why you're british. go drink some tea you old crumpet.
people have to want to take care of themselves to be physically fit. it doesn't just happen because you take the temptation away. you can still get fat from eating healthy! people just need to learn moderation.

and is it me or are all governments becoming a little toooo controling? *cough* communism *cough*

McDonald's is a very strong downfall for an easily influenced person I can see his logic, but it just wouldn't make an impact, like you said Melissa, people with weak constitutions would just not exercise and find other unhealthy things to eat.

I think the answer would lie withing changing the content of McDonald's food or programs that stimulate proper eating habits in our school systems while they're young.

Or how about this... let the parents take care of their kids so when they grow up they already have good eating habits and health habits established. But you know, who wants to raise kids?

first of all, your comment is NOT allowed to be longer than my blog post! lol..

and second, if that were the case then why not ALL fast food places? because if we can't eat at mcdonald's then we will go to jack in the box or taco bell, etc.

but i agree with you on your last point.
