Somethings are worth your time, other things are BS

This is my reaction to this article http://shine.yahoo.com/author-blog-posts/mcdonalds-top-chef-doesnt-see-anything-unhealthy-menu-213500140.html

There is no choice here. The problem is that with the right combination of sugar, salt, and fat food becomes addicting.  It's like cocaine, an McDonalds (as well as other food corps) know this.  So kids eat this crap, their addicted to it and don't even know it, then they can't stop eating it.

The other problem is that tax/INS payers shoulder the burden because we have end up paying more treat fat people.  Maybe INS companies should have a "snapshot" on your scale and your mouth and adjust your premium like that.
