They will reduce portion size ... does that mean that they will also reduce the price of the product? I didn't think so.

Food Nazis.

Kids are getting too fat! We need a law. Parents can't be expected to guide their children's behaviour, isn't that what the government's for??
I propose banning unhealthy food from being sold or consumed in any public place. Oh, and a "sin tax" too, yeah

And, following a lawsuit over the trans fatty acids in its Oreo cookies, Kraft is on a mission to eliminate -- or greatly reduce -- trans fat in all of its cookies and crackers.

Hooray! Trans-fat or Partially Hydragenated oils is a hidden killer. Studies have shown that the T-fat bonds plaque to the arteries. In case someone doesn't understand why T-Fat is in 40% of the food products in the first place, it's added to increase shelf life. It makes cookies, candy, crackers, chips and cake crispy.

Analysts say the food giants haven't suddenly become food pyramid angels looking out for the nutritional well-being of America's youth.

They'll never get Little Debbie and Moon Pies.

''How do you fight with these companies?'' asks Beaton.

Try cooking, try providing healthful snacks. McDonald's doesn't MAKE you drive through for a large fries and coke every Friday.

sheesh

Lowfat wave two. I'm sure this one will fail just as miserably as wave one. That was a rough couple of years, real hard to find a non-turkey non-lowfat keilbasa. They'll keep this stuff just long enough to get the clowns off their backs then go back to making money.
