Again, you're talking about an adult in full control of their faculties, and I'm not. Not even all adults are consciousless, but some have health conditions which limit their intake of certain foods.

Again, I retierate: You both see it as a limit, a handicap, a big no-no and, according to jacobsdeception, even an insult. I just don't. I see it as a move towards healthier eating, and I'm for that, since I know the high-fat high-calorie options aren't going anywhere, and the existing choices won't be limited. As for the majority leading decision-making (and if any such law gets voted into existance, that's who would do it), well, it's a pitfall of democracy.

The amount of adults out there who do not have full capacity of their mind and choices are a minority to the rest. Everyone else must make their choices and stick with the consequences.

And for those people out there who have to limit their intake on certain products, they are taught what they can and can not eat, and they make the choice to stick with that. You seem to imply that there is a very small portion of healthy decent priced food available to the public and I completely disagree. Any adult out there who is not special needs has full capacity to choose what they put in their bodies. Those who do not have that capacity, are generally helped out by people who care for them. I dont see the issue.

The point of this thread was that people are suing KFC for the way they cook their food. It is a fast food joint. People have the choice to go there or pick another place. There does not have to be a lawsuit to every single fast food joint out there because people are not making hte proper decidions for themselves. When people sue McDonalds for making them fat, it is taking the blame away from them, from their own choices. What good is that to people when you can make poor choices for yourselves and your children and place the blame elsewhere?

My stance is that for the people out there who care enough about themselves and their kids, there are plenty of options for healthy eating that wont break the bank. My son can not get enough of apples, broccoli, bananas, and carrots. Does he eat junk food? Sometimes, and as a kid does, he loves it. But it doesnt keep him from asking more often than not for apples. And Id like to say its because as a parent I have shown him that healthy food can taste just as good, if not better, than junk food.

I wasn't commenting on the OP. I was commenting on the fact that I think a nationwide movement towards healthier eating is a good thing. As for someone suing KFC, I think it's as inane as suing for burning themselves for hot coffee, but that doesn't invalidate my arguments towards healthy eating and food options. There's a wide stretch between asking companies to stick to a certain health standard, and allowing for a total lack of responsibility on the part of the individual.

Slippery Slope!

We have some agreement, then, except it's been proven that there is a very good market for these kinds of foods.

It's a good thing no one's talking about taking that right away, then!

The heart of the matter, as it were. Don't worry. If it sells in your area, they'll continue to carry it, AND hopefully, a lower-cal option.

ok, i'm done

The fat is the flavor.

It's true!

Dude, science is not an exact science.

What if the medical body has double D's, and the idea is to have a quick shag?
