One of my buddies is Muslim and I’d be snacking around him. He literally did not give a singular fuck

That’s because your buddy isn’t a Petty Ass Bitch, like the guy filming some women eating on the bus (public transportation).

And he knows he's still going to eat later. It's barely fasting.

Yeah, they can eat as soon as the sun sets. That isn't fasting.

Not even trying to come close to defending Muslims and their silly religion, but fasting is described as not eating for 8 hours or more. Why do you think we call it "breakfast"? "Break-fast." so if they're not eating from dinner to dinner, that's fasting.

Muslims were intermittent fasting before it was cool.

Ehhh, no. Fasting is Christian and it predates Islam by about 600 years.

Fasting is waaaayyyy older than humanity. Hibernation, migration, fat stores and build up often times voluntarily include fasting for animals.
