Fat Kids Can't Hunt

Reality TV show sends fat kids hunting
http://www.news.com.au/da...,21555735-5001028,00.html

Quote

A BRITISH reality television program to be filmed in Australia this winter will force fat children to hunt for food with Aborigines.

In Fat Kids Can't Hunt 10 fat youngsters will live with Aboriginal tribesmen in Australia for a month.

If the children want to eat, they must follow the strict rules of the Aborigines, eating plants, grasses and fruits as well as trapping, killing and cooking any animals or insects they find.

When they come back home they'll surely continue to eat plants, grasses, bugs, and fresh kills; assuming there has been a nuclear holocaust during their time away. Otherwise they'll go right back to eating what they always ate, although perhaps with more vigor since they've been eating bugs in a field for a month.

I don't know if this is exploiting overweight British kids who got that way due to 'Merkan empire building or perhaps the Aborigines but someone's gonna have a cow over it. Guaranteed.

What sort of parent would agree to completely *fudge* up their child's self-esteem by sending them off on this thing?

Actually sounds like a diet I should try. How many pounds could I lose in a month?

Interesting concept.

I didn't think there were any 'true' aboriginal tribes left in Australia that lived totally off the land, and if there are any here I suspect that they eat a lot better than bugs and plants.

By the same token, I'd love to watch a fat kid try and wrangle a goanna for dinner.

My money would be on the goanna every time.

The tribe they are going to live with are cannibals.

So it will all work out.
