intollerance is such a subjective perspective which results in varying perceptions of intent.

Well Mrs POTUS is trying to educate about healthy eating - not sure she is having much luck - costs a lot of money to eat fresh fruits and veggies. Do you think we should pay for that?

They also have statistics on obesity. If excess calories cause weight gain then the plan is to find a way to cut some of those calories without interfering with nutrition. |

My comment about donuts just shows how ridiculous it is to ban large sodas when there are MANY, MANY culprits that may contribute to weight gain. You just can't ban them all! |

For some people the only rights you can have are the ones they think are ok. LOL.
There is always some group or person who thinks they have all the answers. Just take peoples rights away. Yea . I believe there were wars because of that same issue. Guess who always wins. Taking peoples rights away is wrong. |

The bottom line is eating healthy is expensive . It's up to each person if they want to make an investment in their health. It just might pay off in the future

Needs to start in the schools, in advertising....everyone is trying to make a buck....but it might not....and even if it doesn't, officials must tread lightly when it seems they will be forcing food decisions upon the masses. We as Americans take our freedoms for granted....until someone decides we are unable to make choices on our own....right or wrong, we still have the right to decide what we, as individuals, will ingest. All this over cup size....just imagine what it would be like if actual food portions came under scrutiny.

I suppose it depends on how you define "healthy". I doubt I am the only person here who's mother provided decent non-junk meals on a regular basis while living within a limited budget. It can be done without breaking the bank, but you also have TONS of people these days who are incapable of making a simple roast chicken so they go to Popeyes instead.

There was a time in this country when single portion sizes were the norm and obesity was less of a national concern. Were we any less free then? No, of course not. Just less manipulated by greedy corporate interests who have found big money in cultivating a bigger is better mentality!

Problem is not everyone is in a position to pay for those healthy choices. We are currently substituting spaghetti squash for pasta - I can buy a box of pasta for .99 a spaghetti squash costs $4. Would hate to try a feed a family of 4 something like that. Have you priced fresh broccolli lately or cauliflower - it's crazy.
