Also, given the current public conversation thats going on, in respect of "The Obesity Epidemic", especially amongst the nations children,

My personal message is this:

Read the Fucking label. Don't feed your kids so much Shit! Then maybe, just maybe the kid won't end up as a "Fat Cunt"! at school. If it's got rubbishy ingredients in it, don't buy it. If you don't feed it to the fucking kids in the first place, they probably wouldn't get a taste for it! Don't sit in front of your television set like a fucking bloated lazy whale, put a bit of effort into preparing fresh food that's not full of shit! Spend a little on recipe books, and if the recipe you happen to choose is one that might raise eyebrows because of the amount of fat/salt/sugar, then don't not have it, but have it as an occasional treat.

If your kid is already a "Fat Bastard", because you're a fucking moron, then sell the car and make the fat bastard walk to school, if you happen to be one of these parents who to be paranoid, "oh god, there's a child molester on every street corner", then walk with the kids, it'll probably do you some good as well. And if you happen to live too far from the school, then either move school or move fucking house!

And finally, "WAKE UP". The food manufacturers aren't making the convience products for your benefit, it's because like all businesses, they want to make you part with your money - and if they can take cheap ingredients and "Add Value", they're not adding the value for you, the customer, they're adding the value so they can charge you more for it! (and pay the company directors fucking huge bonuses).

"This" © Guardian Newspapers Limited 2004 is an article that particularly amused me.

It amused me, but didn't suprise me. Let's face it, with anything that can be described as unhealthy, the vested interests go out of their way to smear anything that is critical of their particular industry.

As with this report, and "Big Sugars'" attempts to diguise their alledged interference, it seems to be the same as with the tobacco industry. "Big Tobacco" seems to have gone to quite some extremes, to hide the evidence of ill health in connection with the consumption of tobacco. It doesn't matter whether it's snuff, chewing tobacco or cigar/cigarette/pipe tobacco. It would appear that "they" knew of the health risks many many years before the various government establishments "cottoned on" to the health hazards.

And even now, they seem to spend millions sponsoring research that says, tobacco isn't as bad as you think!

Ha, Bollocks!
