New York City to ban Donuts!

[enterthemadness]

Look NYC. People don't have to eat donuts all the time and if they wnat to, it's they decision. I find this a stupid idea. Donuts are meant to be unhealthy. I hardly eat them myself, through they taste very good.

Also a smoke ban is a little dumb. I now it can cause caner and second hand cancer(smoke), but it's also a persons decision. Not yours.

 

[KingOfDreams]

Wow. That has to be one of the stupidest government decisions I've ever heard of.

 

[Kable24]

I like the smoking ban and which other cities would adopt it, but a donut ban seems a little weird. Whereas a person smoking hurts others with second hand smoke, what does stuffing a donut in your mouth hurt. I guess NYC isn't going to have any more police officers...(stupid joke)

Well I'm glad there will be plenty of police to guard all those donut places.

As for the smoking ban, I agree, it's a person's choice.....until:
1) they can't pay for their smoking related illnesses (heart disease, lung cancer, etc...) and they have to go to the free hospital for treatment (which isn't really free since MY tax dollars are spent to keep the place running). AND
2) I have to breath in the second hand smoke.

health officials are talking about prohibiting something they say is almost as bad: artificial trans fatty acids

haha. If this happens, it will bring new meaning to the term 'bootlegging.'

The Kennedy's wealth had its early roots in the illegal distribution of moonshine, but if a law or some quasi-regulation was passed on foods, I could definitely see some upstart-entrepreneur smuggling in 'fatty foods' via an underground network.

America, home of the free......

OMG I can't believe this! Donuts are my favorite food...EVER Glad I don't live in NYC

 

[TKing]

Yeah the smoking ban is a no-brainer. But a donut ban?

Whats next? A ban on soda cause god knows fructose corn syrup is "unhealthy". A ban on internet use over 1 hour a day as anything over is "unhealthy". Eating white bread, one of the most "unhealthy" foods out there.

I try not to eat unhealthy fatty foods, but I imagine I would buy bootlegged fatty food every now and then. Like on my B-day or Chirstmas, etc.

Oh man...I noticed three spelling errors in my original post.

I love white bread, whole wheat is just nasty. It's okay when toasted through.

no ban on soda!
no ban on internet use!

 

[webhead731]

lol. Donuts will become an illegal drug-like item in New York City. They will be on the streets being sold by little gangsters.

Sucks for NYC though.

 

[TKing]

A ban on internet use? We'd all be screwed.

 

[KingOfDreams]

White bread is like whipped dried glue in my opinion. Anyway, I'm glad I don't live in New York. I can eat all the donuts I want, not that I eat donuts that often. But if a ban on fatty foods did come here I'd certainly participate in some bootlegging...buying some that is.

i go to sleep for an hour and this is the news you people throw on me?

 

[PeeNN]

If New York City wants to solve their problems they should ban New Yorkers.

Don't worry, we'll start a Krispy Kreme smuggling operation. We'll be rich!

It hurts me when you eat donuts, because it contributes to you being overweight and puts a strain on my healthcare.

Ah well, it's only more donuts for me.

 

[TrailerCues]

Well this is an odd choice of thing to ban

 

[War Lord]

Not really.

There isn't any decision that's too strange for government beareaucrats to consider.

Seriously, someone would make a killing selling stuff like that. Would police in NY really arrest someone for doing that, if it were outlawed? Probably not.

Try Pepperidge Farm cinnamon raisin wheat; I don't know if it's healthy, but it's good.

No clue why but that was just freakin' hilarious. t:

Why your healthcare? I pay my own healthcare insurance. I'm not some POS living on the welfare like a lot of people taking advantage of the system. Besides th wife won't let me eat donuts
