Outrageous.
How should unhealthy food be regulated?
Ban advertising during children's TV (1658 votes, 23.4%)
Ban sports sponsorships (166 votes, 2.3%)
Label junk food (624 votes, 8.8%)
Tax junk food (898 votes, 12.7%)
Nothing - what we eat is a personal choice (3745 votes, 52.8%)
Now I ask you. How can what we eat be a personal choice?? It is the responsibility of the state to direct our diets. Everybody knows people are too stupid to look in the mirror and make any connection between too much KFC and being blobby. Last time I had a piece of KFC the fat it was cooked in dripped down my chin. DRIPPED DOWN MY CHIN. What we need is a Ministry of Mustn't Eat. It should be tasked with educating people that just like school choice and health choice, food choice is too much of a responsibility to be shouldered by the individual. It makes no sense for the state to own your life and your money and not your body too. We should all be grateful that those with better instincts than ours are preparing to step in and relieve us of our last vestiges of autonomy.
Bugger the majority.

I love it! I just stumbled upon your blog and I could not agree more. Thanks!
as Rodney might say
Yeah Right.

I tried to imagine a photograph of a starving child, in a third world country, with a piece of KFC in its mouth and fat dripping down its chin.
What would we say?
