In other news, paying 'scientists' to perform inane studies seems to breed more useless information.

Maybe we could try to get a government grant to do a study on how much government money is wasted on studies where the conclusion was obvious. Of course our conclusion will be obvious as well. TOO DARN MUCH!!! lol!

I'm going to do a study showing that unburned calories lead to weight gain. I think I need about $200,000 to do the study. Who wants to pony up the money?

Lead author Martha Kubik, an associate professor at the University of Minnesota, acknowledged her research doesn't prove that such food practices contribute to adolescent obesity, but there does seem to be a connection.

..and just how much $$$ did this study cost? Perhaps Ms. Kubik could do another study to find away to do stupid things without costing the school money

Kids sitting on their rear playing video games rather than playing outside is 99% of the problem, parents who let them are .99% and bake sales are .001%

Where are the researchers with any common sense? Bake sales don't make people obese. Putting vending machines in schools and thinking children can make healthy food choices is idiotic, however.

This is stupid. A treat now and then is OKAY.

Perhaps at HOME they're overloaded with this crap and get more of the same at school. To blame it ALL on school is RIDICULOUS.
