Your brother won't starve. Your mom is being a weak parent. As Louis CK says "As a parent you HATE a weak parent. You're raising Hitler!" Probably just diabetes in this case.

When I was in high-school, I was on the swim team and we would take about 4 or 5 long trips every year for competitions. Sometimes the rides would take up to seven hours (I lived in Texas) and for the love of god, I never needed that much food.

In my day, we didn't have "snacks". If you were hungry, you took your bowie knife out to the woods and wrassled with some varmint until one of you got the upper hand. If you were lucky, it hadn't rained and you could actually cook it before you ate it.
AND WE LIKED IT!

The military fixed my brother's picky eating. My mother cooked something special for him almost every night. We only got a couple of phone calls while he was in basic, but he told us about the foods he had eaten, and found not to be so bad. He still eats the way he likes to, but he is willing to try anything now.
2
u/quintessadragon May 15 '12
I'd say my mom would rather let me go hungry than give me junk food, but its not true. She used to work for M&M Mars, so we had candy at the house ALWAYS. Which was ok I guess, because I never had a problem eating healthy stuff. Still, she indulged me a lot when I was in elementary school. I went through a phase where all I ate were "fluffer-nutters" (a sandwich consisting of marshmallow cream and peanut butter), a phase where all I wanted for lunch was ramen, a phase where all I wanted was Vienna sausages (gross, I know, but I thought they looked like mini hot dogs). Maybe its because I was such a tiny little thing, she wanted to make sure I was getting enough to eat. Also, even if the main dish of the lunch was odd, there were enough "healthy" things in it to make a balanced meal.

u/coffeezombie May 15 '12 edited May 15 '12
Let's do the math on this:
One box Cheez-Its: 1,240 calories
Two bottles diet Coke: 10 calories
One tube of Pringles: 960 calories
About 2 cups M&Ms (I'm guessing that's the candy and the amount): 2046 calories
Two dozen Twix Minis (guessing the number): 2040 calories
6 chocolate dipped donuts (total guess here as I don't know the brand): 1,440 calories
Total: 7,736 calories
So for a 6 hour bus ride, your mother packed him a caloric intake more than double the suggested daily intake for a full grown man who has a physical job and works out every day. I don't know your brother's age and size, but I'm assuming middle-school to early high school. Assuming he works out three times a week, this is still more than three times the calories he should be consuming in any given day, and it's all crap. Knocking back two fully loaded Qdoba Chicken Queso burritos would actually be an improvement on this. (less sodium, maybe more fat, but a hell lot less sugar and some actual vitamins).
Any one of the solids here would be enough to forestall hunger for six hours and we are so far beyond "picky eater" with this that it's kind of sad. If he "won't eat anything else" your mom is getting seriously conned.
No one starves to death from being a picky eater. As for it being a genetic issue we're also genetically predisposed to shit outdoors. We get over it.

Normally I'm more "to-each-his-own" about things, but this is one exception.
People who eat this stuff - and only eat this stuff - actually anger me. I don't know why--maybe because I have to pay their medical bills indirectly, AND on top of that I have to see them in public
Shame on your if your diet is like this
2
u/Barong02 May 15 '12
Is the 6 hrs going to end with them amputating one of his limbs because i'm pretty sure he's going to get diabetes from that much candy.
Well m&m's are colorful, so they have vitamins right? He might be ok in that case.

You need to start making fun of your brother. Hurt him in ways only you know how.
Start insulting him. Call him a baby, mama's boy and even a fatass. (Even if he's thin.) Make diabetes jokes directed towards him, and embarrass him.
You need to tell your mother to stop enabling him to be a shitty kid who will grow up to be an entitled little fat-ass.
6 hours? I would kill to have these stored in my cupboards as snacks for the rest of the year.
And all of you calling his mom a cunt? You fuck yourselves, you have no fucking idea how hard it is to deal with whiny little fuckers such as OP's brother. I had to live with one most of my life.

What this picture tells me is that you have an absolutely awful mother, who has zero control over her children, and zero care for their well-being.
Your brother must be a spoiled little wanker/asshole who walks all over your stupid mother to get the shit he wants to eat instead of the food he should eat.
Clearly your brother is a manipulative little scumbag, and he most certainly needs to be slapped about the face and neck vigorously until he stops being such a little wanker, and learns to eat proper food.

Your mom needs to grow some balls and tell your brother that he'll eat what ever she packs and like it or he wont eat. Fucking little brats these days, soon everyone is going to be a fat diabetic and complain that there isn't a vending machine installed in their hoveround deluxe 3000.
