Unfortunately, the one on the right may be more healthy
Smoking cigarettes is the number one cause of heart disease and cancer globally. If you smoke, quitting is the biggest thing you can do to improve your health
Nah, obesity and high blood pressure are the top causes of heart disease, but smoking is also a major risk factor. Bad food and cigarettes are awful for you. Just drink a coffee and pursue an affair like a good Frenchman.
Take out the cig and it definitely is
Cafestol is the main contributor of cardiovascular disease due to coffee (hugely increases cholesterol). Get filtered coffee, or even better, black/mate tea, Matcha/green tea, Guarana or Guyausa (most of which have the reverse effect on cholesterol btw).
I like how different people have said each different item is the main cause of heart disease
Joke’s on you guys because reading my comments is the main cause of heart disease gottem
main cause of heart disease is having a heart
Yeah, such a terrible thing. Let’s remove it! :D
Don’t mind the Aztec decorations in my clinic. :D
oh i see we’ve met before
Now can we stop being so mean to those poor heartless megacorp voting shareholders?
rare we talking
or
edit: also, no.
Do you have a source on that?
Sure.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_effects_of_coffee
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cafestol
And some of the ingredients in the alternatives (some of them in coffee too).
So it sounds like cafestol is the most potent cholesterol synthesis agonists, but that it is in such small amounts in the beans that using a paper filter essentially eliminates it entirely. Even without a paper filter, its low enough that the studies show that you would need to drink more than 4 cups a day of unfiltered coffee for it to start having any sort of impact.
metal filter work too?
Much less effective from an (admittedly brief) look around. The finer filtration you get with paper apparently helps filter it out, but it’s such a small amount that even if you were just chewing beans it doesn’t appear to matter.
Ok, fair point.
oh yeah those neuroprotective issues are more important to me than the cardiovascular ones. YMWV
Straight up didn’t know this, but I don’t and have never drank coffee and am the only man in my family without cholesterol issues.
Yeah, genetically predisposed here, will likely die of a stroke sometime. Though green (and other) tea, Guarana and Guyausa have lots of cholesterine reducers.
In every public space in Europe where can get coffee smoking is strictly EuropeTM is now a public free health dictatorship.
Wow, sounds like a nightmare 🙄
You forgot to include the rum on the coffee.
I would like to point out that british are also european and they are known for their extra healthy bacon and eggs breakfast.
To be fair, cigarettes and coffee are probably healtier than all those foodproduct items on the left.
The choice is lung cancer and heart disease or diabetes and heart disease. At least us europeans die looking good /s.
I still think you have better odds living longer with the coffee and cigs. I’ve seen far more elderly smokers than elderly fatsos.
agreed 100/100
I don’t know, my tummy hurts more after eating a cigarette than junk food.
Junk food is bad? Yeah, sure. Cigarettes are healthier than junk food? No way. Either you’re a guerilla cigarette advertisement or you’ve gone off the deep end.

There’s also the third possibility of making a joke …
My comment was so serious, one could say it was super serious.
sips a cigarrette and take a drag off coffee
Jokes? On my shitpost community? 😡
Who do these people think they are, making jokes on shitposts? I’d report myself to the mods if that was an option!
It’s more likely than you think.
Fair I suppose, though it doesn’t come across well online, especially given the fact that it lines up with the rhetoric cigarette companies have been trying to push for decades
Ask your Doctor if c/lemmyshitpost is right for you! Side affects may include absurdity, nausea, diarrhea and gastrointestinal distress.
Yeah, lemmyshitpost, not lemmyshitcomment. Besides, since when is parroting nicotine propaganda considered shitposting?
Why don’t you just accept you missed a joke and laugh with us
Because as someone who watched his grandfather suffer for ten years from COPD and chronic bronchitis brought on by smoking and who suffers from constant struggles to breathe due to a lifetime of secondhand smoke, I don’t find actual fucking nicotine propaganda to be funny.
The burger is definitely healthier than the cigarette.
Coffee for the win though… all those complex alkaloids and polyphenols…
Nutella is european food
Yes,give us back the Nutella
Delicious palm oil
Also, what’s up with Brits and Europeans eating baked beans for breakfast. Beans are not appetizing as a breakfast food.
I grew up on these in america since my cousins are british, no other beans work, I remember them leaving and my mom tried to buy the right beans, it took months she shouldve just asked, any other beans suck and dont taste the same or work with breakfast food imo, heins beans + sunnyside up eggs + bacon + toast in one bite is peak
Branston are good too, all others trash
heinz blue can vegetarian beans are, almost like all beans don’t tastse the same
Wdym “Brits and”? I’ve only ever heard about that being a thing in GB, and I don’t think it’s all that popular there either
‘Baked Beans on Toast’ is a staple breakfast food in Australia too. It’s served in most cafes, usually alongside eggs, bacon, chipolatas, hash brown, and a grilled tomato.
Wow. These comments.
Pretty sure the right one was also the breakfast of several troops during WW1 and WW2
This is the Parisian breakfast. Nothing compared to the Lyonnais breakfast
This picture HAS to be AI. The cheese wheels are getting progressively smaller. 2 cups of wine. The sauce bowl is barely bigger than a grape ñ. That purple sausage? in the middle looks like a turd. The pickles in the edge are even smaller than the grapes. Sausage baked into pound cake for breakfast seems odd.
Reverse image search shows it 3 years ago. Not AI.
Independent of whether this is AI or not, this is how such plates look like. It’s sad if that is so far out of someone’s reality they have to call the AI card.
No offense. I’m sending this from a place where a meal like this would unfortunately cost me at least 5 of my kidneys 🥹
The cheese wheels are getting progressively smaller
Different cheeses are different sizes. I’m no cheese master but I think it’s a comté, a brie, and a Camembert in order of size.
2 cups of wine
Two glasses for two people? You share a cheese plate. We aren’t selfish fat idiots in Europe.
The sauce bowl is barely bigger than a grape
What do you mean, its almost the size of all the grapes together? We don’t drown all our food in gallons of sauce like mad men. The food itself actually has taste opposed to whatever McD serves for breakfast.
That purple sausage
Look up a Saucisse Sèche d’Auvergne. They do look like that.
The pickles in the edge are even smaller than the grapes.
It’s cornichons. They are that small.
Sausage baked into pound cake for breakfast seems odd
It’s bread. Not cake. Bread and sausage is extremely common together. I’m not French and haven’t seen this variation but in and of itself this would be a stupid indicator of AI.
Beaujolais ? Closer to Lyon… 😁
Oooh le saucisson aux pistaches dans la broche. Gourmand !
Fou de fafa
Surely they don’t eat that much cheese as part of their breakfast
You’re right, they don’t.
The other two cheese platters are out of shot.
Well I’m definitely going to need a a Parisian breakfast after having all of that
Damn I want to go to Lyon now
I’ve never seen a single European use a Zippo. We use Bic over here !
I’ve seen plenty in highschool, even owned one.
Really ? Never saw anyone use it. Are you in Northen Europe/cold area maybe ?
South of France, so not really.
Cricket lighters are better. Much more reliable.
If you live on the coast or other windy region, Zippo works better
Zippo (too) sucks for windy weather. You want one of those blowtorch ones
deleted by creator
Zippos are really only around still because of aesthetic and cool factor and anyone who says otherwise is lying.
Agree. I bought one to go on trek, but you need to refuel it every week. Maybe 2 weeks if you tight it in inner tube. I ended up buying a storm lighter instead. I put it in my underpant when it’s too cold, to avoid gas liquify 😂.
I was also pretty disappointed when i found out Zippo’s drain themselves passively in 1-3 weeks. I thought I was getting the best version of a lighter… :(
replace the dart with a vape and the espresso with a XL coffee from tims 4 sugar 3 cream and we are cookin with fire boys
Don’t compare all of Europe to France! The French love their despresso, that’s on them.
They clearly have not been to a Swedish breakfast buffet.
It’s actually a really healthy breakfast because coffee has a lot of physical health benefits and both coffee and a cigarette help against a mental breakdown when you wake up and realize how fucked the world is.
Nicotine might help with short term anxiety symptoms, but addictions of all kinds tend to make anxiety worse overall and dependent on the addictive substance to not be anxious
Nicotine, by itself, really isn’t that much more addictive than caffeine.
As a smoker, that’s a fucking lie.
Did you not read my comment? I said nicotine by itself, not cigarettes.
Vapes are addictive af, what are you talking about?
I’m way more addicted to vapes than cigarettes. Only reason I ever touch smokes is when I can’t afford a 30$ vape and can only swing 7$ for a pack to get by.
Go with an open system and a bottle of eliquid. More of an upfront investment, but with a refillable system you can adjust your nicotine levels much easier, and it’s significantly cheaper in the long run.
Not physically addictive, no. The physical addiction to nicotine lasts 3-7 days, while caffeine is 7-14.
It’s not the nicotine that has you truly hooked, it’s the habit. It’s the fact that it’s always on you and you can often hit it as much as you want.
Back before shitty closed disposable systems became popular, people regularly dropped to 0 nicotine without any trouble besides some cravings for a few days (which were about the equivalent of caffeine withdrawals).
Have you stopped smoking or drinking coffee? One is way harder, let me tell you. They are both habits, but nicotine is way more mentally pervasive.
You milage may vary but stopping smoking was way harder than coffee. For me, personally.
Yes, that’s why you should never skip your cigarette with breakfast :)
(I quit smoking luckily, I’m just joking around)
Sometimes I wish smoking wasn’t so bad for you.
Nothing hit as good as smoking a cig after a stressful day at work and unwinding.
I wouldn’t even care about the health hazards at this point, given the future we’re all looking at, if smoking didn’t make you stink I’d start back today
Whilst you’re kind of joking (I hope!) on the health benefits, I would say that deriving some enjoyment from all manner of small pleasures is a pretty good way to keep one’s mental sanity.
I wasn’t joking about the health benefits of coffee. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTVE5iPMKLg
I was thinking that the joke part was about the ciggie rather than the coffee.
Yeah, there are no heath benefits when it comes to smoking. It’s just a way to get some feel good chemicals in our brain which we only need because of the addiction and how fucked the world is right now.
tf is your problem with burritos
Probably get bloated from the beans
I get it.
If beans get you bloated your fiber and vegetable intake gotta be ABYSMAL. And I’m not talking about Taco Bell beans. Just regular beans you cook at home either canned or boiled.
okay that’s fair but burritos are pretty great. not as good as tacos with a side of chips and salsa, but still pretty great.
if you don’t like mexican food i worry our cultural values (mine ranking deliciousness laughably high) don’t line up, but we can probably figure it out.
