I was trying to think of a way for both sides to be happy. On one side..we have the people who realize the 400 lbs unhealthy over eater is costing our country money and causing us unnecessary stress.. This is via numerous heart attacks,abuse of food stamps*buying cheetos for one meal vs a big bag of potatos for the same cost*,the fatties who get on disability because they can't bare to walk the extra 10 feet to enter a store or restaurant where they will just make themselves more unhealthy thus costing us more money,and those people who die in their 30s because they cant put the fork down.
The other side is "do what makes you happy" if you want to be 1000lbs go ahead. *the side im on*
Racking my brain trying to think how the fda and people could come together happy.
Finally thought of something.
Changing the transparency of the menu.
For instance...if the fda would put pressure on ALL RESTAURANTS to list calories and complete nutrition information both in store and in website easily available upfront. Not hidden.
I also think high calorie items should be highlighted as such on the actual menus. 600 calories and over.
Second step is stop using skinny actors to push the mcrib or similar. Average people should be used. May be offensive to some here in the states but oh well
This is not a discussion about the proposed transfat ban or Mcdonald ban but a discussion on how to make both sides happy.
