“I’m with you, this sounds like a setup for gubmint manipulation of food supplies.”

On the contrary. Take a look at this sentence from the article:

“According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), childhood obesity has tripled over the last three decades.”

What happened roughly three decades ago, at the start point of the epidemic? Why, we got the wonderful USDA nutritional goals for the United States.

As with most really bad things, the good old Federal government lurks behind the curtain. The obesity epidemic is no exception.

That's done already. The new "Food safety bill" takes care of that...
