inequities in food

Unfairness is in the eye of the beholder. I think its unfair that Mr.X gets to eat truffles and foie Gras at fancy pants restaurants. I can only afford a bean and cheese burrito.

So this article is saying that the fat Americans aren't able to know when enough is enough concerning food. We eat until we make ourselves sick and die. Free choice is a big deal that some people are trying to take away. I don't mind scientists researching (always check the research) foods and saying this is good this is bad. In the end it is my choice to eat the twinkle and not the carrot. Do I know the twinkle is going to add nothing but negative aspects to my body? Yes. But its my choice. I do my own research with classes to better understand the right ways to eat.

Its funny that potatoes are the "it" vegetable. School lunches are what the FDA looks at and says Wooo children in the U.S. are eating really bad and we are providing the food quick what can we change? Potatoes.
Because the majority likes potatoes (a starch people) and to boost charts, records, statistics everywhere (cough school lunches) they became veggies no matter how they are cooked. Don't get me started on katsup.

Then the article has the flip side of the coin, "children", "Sudan", "War-Torn", and unthinkable food such as "high-calorie biscuits and sugar water". This is suppose to make people think and do, what? Those are called buzz words. They are used in the drive by media to stir up things. Its too hard to say yes pay for high-calorie biscuits and sugar water ( I don't care if you are starving this is a horrid pick of nutrition). More information is needed for this article to work. I need statistics. I need the science behind why there isn't a good source of food (war is not a good reason). I need how the data is collected, proof, what other opinions were on the table? Was not Sudan one of the countries that turned down corn to plant because it was genetically engineered. Thanks to PETA jumping in to say its horrid because it had animal protein added (not true).

Types and quantities of food is different all over the world. Is it unfair I can't eat truffles and foie Gras? Nope, I don't eat over priced mushrooms(too cheap) or the liver of a goose (meat). I don't find it unfair Mr.X gets to dine on this. It is his choice whether or not its "good" for him is also his choice.
