I'd Been Eating Fast Food

I Find That One Of The Most Important Things, As A Writer, Is To Just Show Up - To Just Stay In The Chair And Fight Through The Difficult Patches. As Long As You're At The Desk, And You're Willing To Fight It Out, Eventually The Right Words Will Come.

Kids Have No Idea When They're Drinking Soda What They're Really Drinking, And A Lot Of Them Are Stunned When They Learn That Drinking A Big Gulp Is Like Taking A Big Jar Of Sugar And Just Pouring It Down. There Are 50 Teaspoons Of Sugar In A 64-ounce Big Gulp.

There's Been A Growing Effort To Kick Soda Out Of The Schools. And Governors As Different As Arnold Schwarzenegger In California And Mike Huckabee In Arkansas Have Worked Hard To Get Soda And Junk Food Out Of Their State Schools, Which Is Good.

I Think For Real Change To Happen, It's Going To Have To Come From The Kids, The Community, The Teachers, The Parents.

Fast Food Is Popular Because It's Convenient, It's Cheap, And It Tastes Good. But The Real Cost Of Eating Fast Food Never Appears On The Menu.
