The 7 most obese states...

24. That is truly

a difficult battle. The food industry is going to produce what the people are "addicted" to. We do need to protect our children from the garbage that is found in the grocery stores. It seems that a big majority of people are against regulating it or creating laws about the foods produced or quantities served. The answer is "you don't have the right to tell me what and how much to eat."

I believe the way to do food is to walk only the perimeter of the grocery stores, which is where most of the unprocessed foods are located and go from there. But like I said in another post, a lot of this a big learning curve and more time consuming.

The thinly veiled contempt you speak of can be evidence by going to a clothing store and trying to but "fashionable" clothing in a size that is for people who aren't a size 8 or smaller, or have a waist size of 34 or less.
