[QUOTE="Squire Fulwood, post: 553421, member: 44622"] I re-quote this comment to which I replied, yeah Big Nosher. Funny but serious at the same time. If a Government body said, "Nobody eat sugar as of tomorrow". There would be a lot of people in North London who would be out of work tomorrow. Similarly if the law said, "Low fat products are banned". Lots of prepared food factories would shut. It would be economic suicide. To make a change it would be necessary to make the population vote with its feet. If people gave up sugar (for example) since they thought it was bad for them then they would be exercising freedom of choice and the factories would only close down slowly. I can quite understand Big Nosher wanting the Government to cool it after all they were trying to feed us not medicate us. [/QUOTE]
