:11:01
But I'll still have to walk.
:11:03
How much does the average
American walk a day?
:11:06
We have these pedometers
that we put on people,
:11:08
step counters.
:11:09
You could very roughly
estimate at about 2,000 steps,
:11:12
because 2,000
would make a mile.
:11:13
And we know that people
that work in office settings,
:11:16
who drive a car
to and from work,
:11:18
who take an elevator
up to that office,
:11:20
may take as little
as 2,500 or 3,000 steps
:11:23
in their entire day.
:11:24
If you wanted to feel physically
like a lot of Americans do,
:11:27
then you'd limit yourself
to about 5,000 steps a day.
:11:30
Us New Yorkers --
we walk everywhere.
:11:34
We walk to work,
to the park, to the store.
:11:36
Most of us don't even own cars.
:11:38
The average New Yorker will walk
four to five miles a day --
:11:41
a day!
:11:42
That's a lot of walking.
:11:44
Ill also have the blessing
of being close to a food source
:11:47
almost everywhere I go.
:11:48
I walk past three golden arches
just on my way to the office --
:11:51
three in just over a mile.
:11:53
There are more Mickey D's
in Manhattan
:11:56
than anywhere else in the world.
:11:58
This tiny little island
is less than 13 miles long
:12:00
by 2 miles wide,
22.4 square miles,
:12:03
and packed into that area
are 83 McDonald's,
:12:07
nearly four per square mile.
:12:09
There are
twice as many Mac Shacks
:12:11
as there are Burger Kings,
:12:12
and there are
more McDonald's than KFC,
:12:15
Wendy's, Popeye's,
and Taco Bell combined.
:12:17
That's a lot of burger.
:12:19
I know he's
gonna do it for a month,
:12:21
but I think after a week,
he's gonna be really irritated.
:12:24
I think it's gonna
affect our relationship.
:12:26
You are a vegan chef.
:12:29
Yes, I'm a vegan chef.
:12:31
Ugh. I just don't
know if I can --
:12:34
of course I will.
:12:36
Ill sit next to him
while he eats McDonald's.
:12:38
Of course I will.
:12:39
Im just gonna be
rolling my eyes the whole time.
:12:51
I have a vegetable tart
:12:53
and a quinoa
and roasted veggie salad
:12:56
artichokes,
and a simple green salad --
:12:59
all beautiful, organic,
fresh vegetables
