Food Network
Food Network – The fact that there is a Food Network leads me to believe that obesity in Americans is not just self-inflicted. Tune into the Food Channel and you will see every possible combination of appetizer, main course and dessert imagined. Shows such as “30 Minute Meals,” “Ten Dollar Dinners,” “The Best Thing I Ever Ate,” and “Mexican Made Easy” provide examples of why there is a ‘fat’ problem in the states.
Not only do the titles of the shows suggest some weird pornographic puns (“Mexican Made Easy”), but the hosts and actual chefs of these programs make it lights out, or should I say, dinner on, to ‘lack of will powered’ obese people. If I were overweight and I tuned into a 24-hour food channel and saw a beautiful woman showing me how to make meals, there is no way in McDonald’s hell I would ever get off my ass to work out. I would think, “Hey, that hot chick is eating this. Why do I need to work out?”
Chefs such as Claire Robinson, Rachel Ray, Aida Mollenkamp and Padma Lakshmi are all talented in their own right, but the fact that they are all beautiful women and have, at some time, appeared on the Food Network, make it difficult to not be overweight.
I guess a luxury for Americans is a problem for other countries. Sure we can give money to feed the hungry; hell we can even put out silly commercials with Sally Struthers pleading to save the children, but when the only person gaining weight is Sally Struthers, a solution has yet to be uncovered.
