Is Junk Food Just As Bad As Drugs? 06-11-2013, 11:42 AM
#1
I had this discussion with my older sister just the other day. She was telling me that she thought that junk food was worse than drugs by a long shot, and I agreed with her, despite most other people perhaps not being able to agree with our shared opinion.
When I was younger, and my mother told me that my father was on drugs, I was horrified, until I grew up and discovered that he was only smoking Marijuana. They made it sound so bad when I was a child. Marijuana is an amazing drug, well at least it can be when pure.
Junk food on the other hand; most of us have no idea what is in it, so it is harmful in that way. At least with the drugs, you are deliberately going out and seeking whatever drug it is that you want. Also, drugs can be used for spiritual enlightenment if used in the correct way. Junk food isn't going to help you, no matter which way you look at it.
So in my opinion, junk food is worse. Which one do you think is worse?

No, completely disagreed.
If you smoke something like weed, your life is pretty much gone. It becomes so addictive that you MUST have it, without it, you body starts to kill yourself.
I personally detest drugs.

I don't agree at all.
Like HAX0R Says, Drugs become addictive and not only must you have them, They are expensive too. When people stop getting A kick out of lets say weed they will seek a harder drug. When this happens when will it actually stop?

I would say drugs are more harmful,
Food takes time to progress to have horrid effects on you.
Drugs can easily consume your money and it can lead to an over-dose.

I don't believe so, no.
There's no doubt junk food is addictive and bad for your health, but it does not compare to what drugs and/or alcohol can do.

Depending on the quantity of junk food you have it actually can be as bad as drugs. In the end they may both lead to death.
Dont like me? Oh well, go play in traffic.

It all depends on what drug you're talking about. If I were to compare drugs like THC, DXM LSD etc. to junk food the drugs would win. Junk food can potentially ruin someone's life because of the artificial sugars in them screwing up the serotonin levels in your brain making you really depressed or suicidal. Psychedelics and some dissociates have the complete opposite effect on people, while on these drugs you can have a whole new outlook on life. I've heard tons of stories of people tackling depression by taking a high plateau dosage of DXM or dropping some acid. Basically what I'm trying to say is those drugs have mostly productive effects on you compared to junk food which makes you fat and depressed.
