Food is necessary to sustain life.

Being fat is not. And I notice that you avoid answering my question on whether or not you are fat. Are you?

As for your silly ground glass question, if you don't know the answer, try selling such crackers. If you do know the answer, then your question is not really a question, as it seeks no information.

The purpose of my question, in case you could not figure it out, was to offer a more accurate analogy to the matter of food and tobacco. Obesity is caused by eating to excess, but food in appropriate amounts is beneficial. Smoking related disease is caused by smoking to excess, but tobacco products include addictive substances that compel people to smoke to excess.

Therefore the analogy of tobacco to food and tobacco related illness to obesity is not accurate. The purpose of offering the alternate question, where the food is both addictive and inherently dangerous, is an attempt to offer a better analogy. I have no desire to sell such crackers or to kill people.

And the fact that you can bounce a quarter off of the rock hard abs connected to my lithe 195 pound frame really adds no information to the discussion, which is why I have not offered it until this time.
