“If Jesus was alive, he would not be serving French fries, that’s for sure. Next up is Chick-Fil-A. These guys are only open six days a week because they are closed for the Sabbath. Let’s be sober for a minute. There's nothing virtuous in this at all,” Bryan Johnson said in the video as he shared snippets of the American fast-food chain.

Used to eat the frequently and as a punishment I got fatty liver. Lost like 8 KG lost my workout progression. I feel foolish,” while another comment read, “I stopped eating Chick-fil-A sometime last year. I would go like every 3 months when I'd get a craving but after the last time it felt like a rock in my stomach and I felt crappy for the rest of the day. Absolutely not worth it. Food should make us feel good.” Another netizen commented, “Finally someone had a courage to say exactly what it is.” Also read | Addicted to fast food? Beware, it can damage your immune system
