USDA targets candy, cola in new school nutrition regulations

Fugu contains a poison. are you saying fructose is a poision?

Its not me ignoring chemistry, its people like you. yes they can be metabolized differently but in the end they all provide energy to cells.

Its a fish. And a fish is a fish the same way you said Sugar is Sugar. Suddenly you realize that there are differences. Congrats, you're almost there.

Energy to cells is not a point you brought up before so is it safe to assume you've dropped the "There is no difference between natural and processed sugar" argument.

That would be a step in realities direction

What I fail to see is the giant conspiracy that HFCS is somehow poisoning people, which is what is being claimed. Metobolic differences do not equate immidiately to health issues or risks.

But its sensless to argue with a nanny state busybody such as yourself, because your solution is always to regulate how people live "for thier own good"

If you remove the fugu poision, isnt fugu flesh pretty much the same chemically as tuna flesh?

You get it now. There are differences. So please remember that next time you say something so idiotic as "sugar is sugar" because everything has differences like you managed to point out with Tuna and Fugu.

Sugar still is sugar at the end of the day. After that only microbiologists give a shit, or people like you with an agenda and an overriding fear of corn syrup.

And your body, don't forget your body gives a shit too.
 
Also, reported for advocating suicide. Asshat.

YOUR attitude about sugar is advocating a slow suicide.
The difference?

"In fact, sugar is weakly addictive. In animal studies, fructose causes the four criteria of addiction: bingeing, withdrawal, craving, and sensitization to other addictive substances (meaning after chronic exposure to sugar, it’s easier to get hooked on another drug). In humans, fructose lights up the reward center in your brain called the nucleus accumbens on MRI; but after repeated exposure, the reward center lights up less and less, so you need more and more to achieve the same effect. Fructose has effects on the reward center similar to alcohol; and just like alcohol, can lead to a “vicious cycle” of consumption and disease.
In addition fructose gets turned into liver fat, driving insulin resistance.

Weakly addictive???? LOL. So what are the trillions of cells in our bodies? Sugar addicts?

So obviously we need the government to tell us what to do, based on your idiotic interpretation of the preamble to the consitution, and your ignorance of the rest of the document.

You are dumber that a pork sausage stand at a Muslim Brotherhood Picnic.
 
Want cure obesity? Put the whole country on the Mediterraen or Atkins diet, abolish junk food and that pretty much fixes the problem.

Did somebody say something about how people should READ IT?

the moron does not know when to stop.
Section. 8.
The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defense and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;

an entire country of morbidly obese would be the opposite.

As a student of the history of the founding of our country, I can assert with some confidence that not even the most virulent Federalist of the day who signed their name to that document would have stood with you on this matter, and would be shocked to see you interpret the general welfare clause so broadly as to render the federal government omnipotent.

by this definition breathing is addictive.

Looking for a crisis so government can tell us what to do even more.

You are pretty ignorant on the subject, and obviously happy to stay that way.

Keep being afraid of that bottle of pepsi, or that snickers bar. Or more to the point, of someone else enjoying that bottle of pepsi or that snickers bar.

Some people are only happy if they are making other people miserable.

Ah, there it is "nanny state", the marker of big tobacco. Not a surprise, because Phillip Morris used to own Kraft. & applied a lot of the same tactics that Big Tobacco applied to the health/tobacco link, applied to the processed foods salt/fat/sugar argument. One of their best is the nanny state - as if their customers/marks/victims were small children putting one over on the babysitter. Excellent choice, playing to the childish within us all.

Course, rib-spreaders & quad-bypasses aren't nearly as cutesy, but give them time, give them time. Nestle I believe is already hawking liquid food for people who've undergone stomach reduction surgery - "But it's all so good! I just couldn't/can't/won't resist the least little morsel" - the downside being that people have the surgery, but the surgery does nothing to instill self-discipline. Some of these unfortunates go right back to eating the same boated excess of the same stuff, & in worst cases, burst their stomachs & then really have to undergo heroic surgical procedures - & still with no guarantee that they won't go straight home & binge some more ...
 
Raise your hand if you can identify the section of the Constitution that authorizes the Fed Govt to regulate what foods are served in schools.

:confused:

So far, only one person has tried to answer this question... and gotten it wrong, while spending most of his time calling people names.

No one else has even tried.

Clock is ticking......

It is not a Constitutional problem. It's a dietary problem.

I love how people cling to their so-called rights and freedoms to poison themselves however they see fit. Americans have one of the highest rates of obesity in the world, and many people in the US are both overweight and mal-nourished. This is no accident.

Foods are factory farmed, and processed until most nutrients are destroyed, and then fat, salt and sugar are added to improve the taste, and decrease actual nutritional value. In the 1930's and 1940's, people had backyard gardens - called "Victory Gardens" during WWII and grew their own food. In the 1950's, we saw the first of the "super-markets" but most people bought their food from small mom and pop grocery stores, and TV dinners first made their appearance. They were a national joke they were so bad.

Now most people eat highly processed, prepared foods full of salt and preservatives. And this generation of children is poised to become the first generation to have a shorter life expectancy than its parents. Processed foods are good for generating big profits for the food industry, but not for providing healthy eating for people.
