I know that sometimes in the fitness world you can be ahead of the press in terms of knowing what is and isn't good for you. So sometimes you read an article that seems to be making headlines and think "well dur, that was so 2005"
The latest batch of "shock" headlines have been about the dear salty, fatty, unhealthy kebab. Seriously, which utter muppet honestly believes a greasy fat filled takeaway, only edible after much drinkage could possibly, in the remotest sense, be good for you?? This isn't so much a "well dur" moment as "wanting to power bomb the journalist for trying to make this seem like a new discovery, dur" moment.
The newspapers have been going round like it's the latest super scientific discovery....no it's not, just look at the damn thing when sober, it's horrible! Here are a few examples:

The biggest shock is that is seems the dimwit media has only just caught on to how unhealthy the kebab is. I remember reading in an edition of Men's Health about 10 years ago how unhealthy and horrible kebabs are.
