Then can the public make the choice to stop paying for their healthcare when they drink what I like to call "silos" of soda from Circle K and develop diabetes II?
People don't want the government in their lives yet they won't take any responsibility either. I have really started to look at how fat people are, it's pretty bad. And when I see kids so overweight, it breaks my heart. Parents are killing their children with their choices in food. How one cannot see that a girl 75 lbs. overweight needs to drop a few pounds is beyond me.
And diet soda is equally if not worse for you than regular soda, I'd like to see that on the ban list as well.
I would rather just see smaller cups offered, no one needs 100 oz. of soda, no one. However, I'd like to see normal portions with everything. In Vegas, I ordered chicken parm from a nice Italian restaurant. The portion size they gave me was close to two pounds of chicken, a normal portion is 1/8 of that, and that's exactly what I ate of it.
Sorry for the rant, food education means a lot to me.
