Hey everyone - lets start a list of references to keto in popular culture - any reference to low carb (and preferably high fat) is acceptable. Documentaries are not allowed!
I will start:
Speed 2 Cruise Control
A scene with obese American tourists who are eating fatty food and explaining they are doing that to lose fat. That is supposed to be a dig at stupid fat Americans…the joke is on the director!
See, the misconception is that fat is bad.
In order to lose fat, you shouldn’t eat fat.
Well, guess what, guys?
False. Your body’s just a giant computer.
Mm. See, if you don’t eat fat…
…your body’s mainframe goes, whoa!
Whoa!
Better keep whatever fat I’ve got.
So you see, we at Fatbusters…
…well, we say fat is your friend.
Community
In the TV seriers “Community”, Jeff (Joel Mchale) is low carb (as is the actual actor) and there are many references to it:
quote 1
britta: there’s one thing i don’t get, though… why did you get pizza if you always just eat the toppings?
jeff: isn’t it obvious? i like pizza, but i can’t eat all the carbs.
quote 2
You ate the potatoes? You, you don’t even eat carbs. I eat love, Britta.
"Lizzie McGuire" (2001)
Lizzie: Kate, you don’t eat carbs.
Kate: I’d eat carbs if an Italian boy bought them for me!
