And it’s up to parents and individuals to create those habits. So you can sit around waiting for the government to help make you thin or you can do it yourself. Industrialization of food is going nowhere. This country doesn’t have the capacity to feed our oversized population without it. Plus, to keep food affordable, mass production is a necessity.

You want to change food culture? Start with your own home. Get off the soccer field until 8pm and all weekend and make actual meals for your kids. How many families do you know that have traded nutrition for sports? The government cannot control our bad choices[/quote]

And how’s that working for us? Oh, wait, it doesn’t. It simply doesn’t work because we have 40+% of population obese and a very sickly last generations. 
And to say that it’s because they’re all irresponsible slobs who made poor choices is basically avoiding responsibility as a country, as a system.[/quote]

Yes, they are responsible. All of them. It’s working great for us. We feed our kids healthy meals , don’t overeat, and exercise regularly. It is completely doable to be healthy if you make it a priority. I can’t help those that don’t. But let that 40% wait for the government to make them healthier. That’ll work out just great for their health[/quote]
Translation:
Yes, I am rich and I am educated and had time to look into this. While paying for my nails and hair to be done between the gym and a walk with friends. I have money to buy healthy food, and time to get it ready of pay someone to get it done.

Real life translation: I am rich, effe off.[/quote]

Eating “heathy” isn’t expensive.  That has been discussed over and over and just isn’t true.  But people just don’t care.  There are no kids going to school literally starving.  The poor kids are all over fed crap and school just piles it on too.  You want school to serve a heathy “French style” lunch? It will get tossed in the garbage (but eating the roll of course) and the kid will open a bag of Funyuns when they get home.  [/quote]
