"This is the beginning of a war on obesity that will see government making many food choices for us and trying to control the way we eat."

A governmental "war on obesity" might contain elements that I would support, and elements I would oppose. I would strongly oppose lawsuits against fast food restaurants, for example, but I strongly support labeling laws that tell you exactly what the nutritional content of food is. As a borderline diabetic, I find that information very important and useful.

I don't support the war on smoking or the war on obesity. I think people should be allowed to consume what products they choose to consume.
