  I thought ranting against cycle lanes was the national pastime? It’s no longer legal to discriminate against people for their skin colour, but you can hate them for trying to get some exercise as they travel.

    Yeah, they do that while drinking and eating.

    Had a 1400kcal meal recently - over 2000kcal after drinks, it didn’t even feel overly filling. Wtf are they putting in this to be so many kcal and not fill you?

    I can easily see that leading to obesity if you eat it on any vaguely common frequency. With how many people I know that look at me strangely because I don’t eat a takeaway or at a pub at least once a week, I get the impression many people are eating that an awful lot.

      What’s in it? Engineered food, owned by the companies that used to market tobacco. See
