Just have these people get their (probably not so skinny arses) up to North Dakota, give ‘em a job on a roustabout crew working out in the weather and confine them to a 2000 calorie low fat plant based diet. The problem will rectify itself.

Fat doesn’t make you fat, sugars and carbs are the culprits.

You’re trying to enjoy a lunch break, but some federal food Nazi is there in your break room/construction site/cafeteria telling you what you can and cannot eat.

Dangerous places, those construction sites...someone who isn't familiar with the layout might get hurt...

Just saying.

Just when the science has caught up with the fact that we NEED fat in our diet - it’s not FAT, it’s the KIND of fat - Nanny comes along and plans to monitor what you eat.

Humiliating you at work, SENDING YOU TEXT MESSAGES?????

That was my thought too. The very people who have done the most to make America fat are now pushing their failed ideas as critical to...what?! It was their stupid ideas about avoiding fat and eating lots of carbs that did so much to fatten us in the first place.

I hope this ends up with some fat guys beating the crap out of some lib pajama boys.

The federal committee charged with creating nutrition guidelines for Americans is calling for fat interventions at workplaces.

The only fat intervention needed is for federal commissions...between their ears!

The fat wookie in chief isn’t hungry just starving school children. Now she wants to starve the rest of us.

Let’s start by trimming the Budget fat in useless federal agencies and committees. Like the ones who appoint themselves as overlords of our eating habits is a real good place to start.

Some fat folks are very strong and have learned to use their extra mass to a big advantage. I’ve seen this in Sparring class.

I know. I have a cousin who used to be a lineman at a major college. He is now fat but still very strong. I did not mean it to sound like I was disparaging the fat guys. I think it would be amusing to see a few vegan libs get their a$$es handed to them by fat guys.

>>Angela Tagtow, who was appointed to oversee DGAC this summer, has called for “social justice” in food policy and says she takes an “ecological” approach to nutrition.

I’m surprised she wasn’t able to work “sustainable” in there somehow. Perhaps she did, and we just don’t have the full quote.

There’s certainly something to be said for eating a balanced meal!

Obesity is not an epidemic. It’s a symptom—not a disease. That’s like saying, “there’s an epidemic of sneezing”.

This is just another way to increase the number of federal workers. Perhaps it would be a whole new agency with its own building. Government has expanded into roles undreamed of by the founders.

Maybe there is some way we can have fat head interventions with a huge supply of socks we could put in it...make that in 'em.

If we took 100% of Federal Committee Chair people and stampeded them off of extremely high precipices the world would become a better place in just a couple of seconds.

The ones who come out to enforce this are going to be fat, as well... because, if they aren’t, then there’s clear discrimination in hiring practices against fat people in that government department... and just watch the lawsuits fly!

Workplace fat interventions: Donut shops and policemen, be forewarned.
