Humor: The Healthy Eating Stereotype of LGBT people

I'm gay and I practically eat comfort food (carb-heavy, filling, meats, cheese, starches, etc.) at every meal....

The article was funny though. And now I'm hungry... xD

But as a greedy, food-obsessed, individual; I welcome any and all foods. Gay, straight, or organic.

 

I'm vegetarian, with vegan inclinations. Healthier than many, perhaps, but I still eat crap from to time to time.

 

well I didn't know people have even come up with a menu that LGBTs tend to stick to o.o
LOL

 

My partner is a vegetarian but was eating vegan when we started dating. So during that time, we ate a lot of weird-but-healthy stuff. Nowadays though, we do eat things like pizza or chips, but now that I know I can make really fresh, healthy, vegan food that I actually like, I think it's a good sign.

Funny article though!

 

According to that article I'm fully hetero.. I love mexican food, deep fried snacks and I'd never ever remove sour cream from a recipe or make a Caesar salad without the anchovies : )

I do eat reasonably healthy though..

 

hahaha, this is hilarious. My friends always tell me I need to eat better, because I ONLY eat processed food and junky snack food, unless I'm at a friend's house for dinner or out on some kind of special occasion.
Not to mention I can't stand vegetables.

Too funny

 

For breakfast I usually will eat whatever leftovers there are in the fridge or cereal and for lunch I will usually have a ham sandwich or if I'm at work I'll buy somthing like healthy steamers that u just throw in the microwave to heat up and for dinner since I still am living with my parents my mom cooks dinner which is 99% of the time somthing healthy and balanced. She makes a killer minestrone soup with veggies(including kale ) and white beans...sooo yummy and it's probly the most healthy thing a person can eat. But we don't eat 'organic' food...I just believe in reading the ingredients labels and picking brands with less sodium and no preservatives or chemicals etc but don't get me wrong I lovvvve fast food very very very occasionally and I love chocolate and making cookies often! Whew that was a long post, sorry

 

Am I the only one who really hated the tone of this article? "when was the last time you saw your gay best friend eat a carb without crying and shaming himself for three hours afterward?" That line in particular made me grit my teeth. I know its supposed to be cute and joking and all, but that came across to me as stereotyping of a really unhelpful kind.

Maybe I'm just in a crabby mood today or something...

 

I'm definitely not classy enough to eat stuff like that.

You're in a crabby mood today or something. It's tongue-in-cheek!

 

Some of it slightly rings true to myself. I do feel shame after eating carbs. But I also continue to do so!

Eventually I would like eat much healthier, more raw/clean foods, but right now I just can't afford to. It's so much easier to spend a couple of pounds on a burger than it is to spend a ton of money on organic vegetables and lean meats.

All-in-all I find the article quite amusing. Stereotypes always come from snippets of the truth.

 

I just eat what there is to eat, but normally I go for the healthier option, but that's just cause I normally like healthier food better.

 

Christ. Almost everything on the menu just sounds gross. About this only things I could stand are:
Shell-less spinach quiche with a side of baby greens (greens would be ignored)
Cesar salad sans anchovies (pretty much everyone likes salad)
Baked apple pie (duh)
Baked chicken with wild grain rice (it's the only thing on there that sounds normal)
Grass-fed beef thinly sliced with a side of organic veggies

Blech.

 

90% of the food in the menu are lost on me haha

as for processed food, i do try to avoid fast food and chips and those packaged carbs, but some can foods are good

 

I'm reading this with a 14 piece bargain bucket from KFC to myself.

You might think this is bad, but I have to have a lot of calories for the exercise..

 

Oh god, I eat so much crap. Need to eat healthier, but at uni, cake is £1, small cup of strawberries - £3.45 -.-

 

people stereo type everything lol

 

I just read up to the part that says 'gay chips r baked and straight chips are deep fried' bahahahaha! :roflmao: I hope this guy is kidding because that is the biggest load of shit! That whole article is a joke..to me it's not even based on stereotypes, because, well, I don't know any gay people but I really doubt that a gay guy would cry after eating a carb filled meal lmao and come on... This guy apparently wrote a book called 'gay people don't get fat' and u know from just that this article is ridiculous!

 

There was nothing at the menu that seemed particularly appetizing to me. I mean I try to eat healthy, but I grew up in a mexican family and we know how to EAT hahaha. I didn't see any tortillas on that list!

 

This is the dumbest nonsense I've ever seen. And I'm not sure what the point is, other than to try to establish a stereotype.

The gay men's entree not a real meal. I need more than salad and quiche. The lesbian entree, on the other hand, sounds great.
