This is why America is fat

[jjtt]

I'm tired of people thinking shit like this up in the first place. It's like new and indulgent pastries is not a pressing concern in this world. People put all this creative energy into making shit that doesn't matter. I had to listen to a business proposal the other day based on the sale of bacon wrapped hotdogs. I had a guy sitting next to me worth about 50-100m who you could feel the palpable anger rising. We don't need shit like this...we don't need meat wrappen in other meats, caked baked in on top of cakes on top of cakes. God people in Europe look at us like we're monkeys.

It's not the food itself, it's the policy around it that is the real issue.
I can personally think of about twenty better policy making ideas than banning food inside food creations.
People aren't getting fat because they go to a party where there is a cake with three pies in it. People get fat because they eat poorly on a daily basis. Because kids eat sugar cereal for breakfast, lunch is junk food in school cafeterias and dinner is fast food.
I'm more outraged that children are targeted by cartoon characters that represent billion dollar food corporations. Or that people associate Pillsbury with the warmth of home, friendship, and family. Or that Dieticians are industry partners with Mcdonalds, Cadbury Schweppes, Pepsico and Nestle. Or that major Health programs/Foundations are similarly sponsored/funded by those same corporations. Why is the Heart and Stroke Foundation partnering with Pizza Pizza?

Food Politics OK. Time to talk about the American Dietetic Association’s alliances with food companies
