    Let’s ban McDonalds while we’re at it. Obesity has higher health care costs than smoking, believe it or not. In fact let’s just ban eating meat altogether. Surely you’ll smugly agree with these simple numbers.

      The difference being that cigarettes are always unhealthy, no matter how many you smoke, they procure zero benefits. McDonald’s is just a meal and becomes an issue if you eat too much of it, once every now and then won’t have any consequences.

        Eating a vegen diet is always more healthy than eating a meat diet. You like banning harmful things, surely you should be in favor of banning meat.

      I mean… I wouldn’t complain if megacorporation fast food restaurants that provide nothing but cheap, unhealthy junk were driven out of business…
