A doubter said, "I saw you eating French fries at McDonald's yesterday."

The guru replied, "You can't call that food."

Notes:

1. A cult leader claimed that he survived on air.

有一個教派的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者宣稱，他靠空氣就能存活。

"survive on"是指某人所賺的錢僅夠糊口，或指所擁有的食物僅夠維持生命。

一個表示懷疑的人說：“我昨天還看到你在麥當(dāng)勞吃薯條。”

3. The guru replied, "You can't call that food."

這個領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者回答;“你不能稱那東西為食物。”

大部分的快餐(fastfood)都是高熱量、低營養(yǎng)的食物，也就是所謂的垃圾食品(junk food),所以該精神導(dǎo)師堅稱那算不上是食物。
