    Its all about the money just follow the money
    But the focus on promoting unhealthy lifestyles abroad has also increased, ironically, because the United States has succeeded in promoting healthier ones at home. Americans are eating less fast food and ingesting fewer calories than they did a decade ago - a trend that should begin to lower U.S. obesity rates, which have largely plateaued. San Francisco actually tried to ban McDonald's Happy Meals because they target kids with fat and sugar, and this summer Taco Bell announced it is dropping food-toy combos for children altogether. As eating patterns have changed, the food industry has looked to new markets. Take high-fructose corn syrup. U.S. consumption, at around 27 pounds per capita last year, has declined in large part due to mounting concerns that it is an important driver in the obesity epidemic. So American corn producers have looked to export markets to pick up the slack. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2012 the United States exported 1.47 million metric tons of fructose, a 1,450 percent increase from 1995. - See more at: http://mcalesternews.com/features/x1253343348/How-America-is-exporting-its-obesity-epidemic#sthash.tFXCK2s8.dpuf{/quote]

    While I do think that there is something about the business of high fructose corn syrup and some of the studies are very interesting, there is still a lot to be said for personal accountability. It's not like we tied the Mexican people up and forced high fructose corn syrup and junk food and soda down their throats. We all have to choose what and how much we eat. I will be the first one to say that I do occasionally eat junk, and like Taunto, I eat ice cream regularly. I have lost a little over 70 lbs in the last year, so I must be doing something right!

    You do understand that an insult is an insult, whether stated directly here or linked to a youtube video.


    ETA: Oh and nah, I'll pass. About to be done with C25K and moving on to C210K so I've no desire to ride those scooters. Not unless we can somehow up the speed on them and race. :bigsmile:
