Fast foods and obesity
Fast food consumption went up in the nineties in line with the increase in obesity and diabetes.
The following quote was on Biz Com last week. It illustrates the incredible power that fast food lobbyists have in Washington.
"The assertion that heavy marketing of energy-dense foods or fast-food outlets increases the risk of obesity is supported by almost no data."
William Steiger, US health department official and head of the US delegation to the World Health Org.
