I’m telling you right now, the food companies are in for a rude awakening if they think that by weakly giving into this shakedown
________

Yea - they should make their food even more unhealthy just to spite them.

While you may be correct, it is still a good thing to do what they are doing, doncha think?

"By committing to these nutrition standards and marketing reforms, Kellogg has vaulted over the rest of the food industry," said Michael F. Jacobson, executive director of the Center for Science in the Public Interest. "This commitment means that parents will find it a little easier to steer their children toward healthy food choices - especially if other food manufacturers and broadcasters follow Kellogg's lead."

That is my objection -- it is not up to Jacobsen and his band of nanny-staters to parents how to raise their children, nor is it their place to determine what a company can manufacture or how it markets it. I do not need jacobsen to tell me how to feed my child a healthy diet.
