Thats so true i had to do 75 hrs community service for school and they let me do it at a daycare center. Most of the time i just layed back and watched tv in fact the most stressfull part of the job was breaking up the occasional pokemon card fight.

sorry, but it happens.

I have been on a strict diet since July. a few months in, I grabbed some of Mom's Taco's and the oils in it (which my body was not used to) made me sick to my stomach. Puked it all up. couldn't keep food down for a day.

While I am sure it is imbelished a bit, calling BS on it might not be wise.

Not debating whether fast food is bad for you, just questioning the dramatics. Trust me, I've been on strict diets also, and if you, or our documentary producer can't handle a taco or Big Mac a few days in, meaning throwing up and not being able to keep food down afterwards, then either you both are victims of food poisoning, or have other medical issues.

I know someone that can't eat meat without having a very upset stomach, and she loves meat, but yeah that is medical related I'm sure (she doens't know whats causing it).

While I mostly agree, I can say that I seem to develop sensativities to garbage when I eat clean for awhile, although I often allow myself a weekly cheat meal of pizza, if I eat ice cream sometimes it makes me downright ill when I used to be able to dump 1/2 gallon in a sitting.

It's totally easy to barf from food you're not used to. Most vegetarians will tell you this.

But I've had similar experiences with things like super greasy popcorn from a movie theatre, and of course, Fast Food. My girlfriend barfed after eating half of a large deep fried onion flower.

I actually don't think he's exaggerating on the puking. I think it's totally feasible. Three Golden Arch meals a day (with soda, I presume) would be enough to send your glycogen levels on a rollercoaster--that alone can make you vomit.

I also once upchucked two entire footlong meatball subs from Subway, but that was probably due to volume more than anything.

Or it was food poisoning--which is also a nasty thing to be selling people!
