- Tim argues that getting out and saying corporations shouldn't control us is empowering and liberating.
- Kids given nutritious meals still go hungry because they're addicted to sugar and junk food like Fun Dip and ketchup milkshakes.
- Michelle Obama's attempt to get kids to eat healthy caused a literal riot.
- Tim describes his own sugar withdrawal: headaches, irrational anger, and imagining horrible things happening to people he hasn't seen in years.
- A slice of flourless chocolate cake makes him feel like he's not a bad guy after spending time imagining people dying in various ways.
- When detoxing from sugar and working out, you have to increase your levels of compassion.
- Getting fit and caring about yourself makes you angry at people who aren't taking care of themselves, creating resentment about their lack of discipline.
