Did you know that the bubbley effervescence in your soda pop is actually CO2? A Substance recognized by our congress as a greenhouse gas?
Stand by for taxation. the groundwork has been laid.
Twinkies? ding Dongs? HoHo’s? well... they add to the scourge of type II diabetes dont ya know, and that places a burden on our health system.
Taxes are coming to all those folks who approve of this kind of taxation for smokers. Its coming faster than I thought.
The good news is that you can store Twinkies for 50 years at room temp without them going bad L0L

And don't forget that The Governator passed an anti-greenhouse gas law a while ago that ran Wonder Bread out of the state of California.
Making bread generates CO2.
Making malt ALSO generates CO2.
Malt. KEY ingredient to BEER.
WAKE UP, PEOPLE!!

Hamburgers are the Hummers of food in global warming
Food is the third largest contributor to the average US household's carbon footprint after driving and utilities, and in Europe - where people drive less and have smaller homes - it has an even greater impact.
"Food is of particular importance to a consumer's impact because it's a daily choice that is, at least in theory, easy to change," Weber said.
"You make your choice every day about what to eat, but once you have a house and a car you're locked into that for a while."
The average US household contributes about five tons of carbon dioxide a year by driving and about 3.5 tons of equivalent emissions with what they eat, he said.
"Switching to no red meat and no dairy products is the equivalent of (cutting out) 8,100 miles driven in a car ... that gets 25 miles to the gallon," Weber said in an interview following the symposium.
