Why is it that the majority of Asda Shoppers are overwieght ? Even the owner of Asda himself said that he was sick of all the fat people that keep using his store and he wanted to do something to attract thin people( Naughty huh) But do you think its because the foos is so Shi* and cheap they can fill up and eat more ?

I think you lied and you DON'T like big butts and you Do lie...........Asda shoppers are a beautiful breed of people and they all like going to the same shop so that they can compare who has the biggest **** and who has the ugliest children. Also.......their husbands follow them around on their mobile phones speaking in hushed voices to their 'fat' girlfriends....lucky old bitches. I am only 3 stone over weight so am not yet allowed in Asda but I look forward to the day. I really pigged out over Crimbo but only managed to gain 30 pounds. I will keep trying and look forwaRD TO SEEING YOU THERE!

You are making a sweeping generalisation and offering no statisitical evidence to back up your claim, but stereotypes do exsist for a reason.
I think that you could argue that a higher percentage of Asda shoppers are overwieght than compared with, say, Waitrose shoppers. This is because Asda is a lower class of supermarket which offers much cheaper food than Waitrose. Again, a sweeping generalisation, you can argue that the type of people who shop in Asda (poor people) are also those who are least educated. It is clear that education is an important factor in weight management, those who are poorly educated are likely to make unhealthy food choices which can lead to weightgain. Waitrose shoppers will tend to be better educated and more aware of healthy nutrition. You could argue that as waitrose shoppers are wealthier, they would also have acsess to more weight management products such as gyms and weight loss classes.

It is actually because the food is cheap and one has to eat more of it to be full, and also has lots more empty calories that poorer people are fat.
And then there are some that eat up, up and up! And up until the springs break in their scales.
Thanks for the challenge on a boring day!

Note it does say something for ASDA's quality of food!

I went to Asda this morning to do a food shop and I can't say I noticed any particularly fat or overweight people striding about.. no more so then in Sainsbury's or Tescos. I also happen to think their food is good with as much selection as anywhere else...

You know to be honest if it is the crappy food then the owner of Asda's needs to check what he is selling!!!
What is with the question anyway??? Maybe you should shop at the rabbit food shop???

errrrrr are you okay. cookoo cookoo
On a more sensible note whats the difference between the food at asda, tesco, morrisons, sainsburys? Its all the same at brand level and i wouldnt touch there no frills shite they sell.
Although maybe its cos walmart owns it and we all know what country that comes from
the 'UGE SIZE of AR$E aka USA
