'Buy one, get one free' deals for unhealthy food banned in supermarkets

"Remember when it used to be at least affordable to speedrun yourself into an untimely grave through poor nutritional choices and/or prohibitive socioeconomic status?

Pepperidge Farm remembers. ^{Pepperidge Farm was *there*.}

buy it's still okay to sell unhealthy food? so this is the shit we're living in?

Scanned that, not seeing the definition of "unhealthy". Anyway, I'm in on about any measure to cut obesity. It's a monster problem, certainly in the US.

Look around your doctor's office. Seems almost every person is fat. Look at people wearing leg casts, except for skinny teens who are probably in sports, all fat. No matter the state's medical system, fat people are a huge drain. I cannot take anyone seriously who disagrees.

Anyway, I was a kid in the 70s and 80s, young adult in the 90s. It was a very different world. Daily I see people in public that hardly existed in the day.

Walked 1.25 miles home in the summer heat from my mechanic's shop today. Wife thought I was nuts. Took my kids hiking the trails to the creek. "How faaaar daddy?" "Little over a mile." "DAAAD!" We started gym class with a mile jog, from 6-yo to 12-yo.

I'd argue obesity is a climate change driver. Anyone who disagrees likely doesn't get out in the country and/or understand farming and ranching. Yet few have an issue stating that eating meat is a problem contributing to all of the above. What about all the energy we put into producing and shipping all our food?

For what it's worth, I'm skinny as hell, and despite abusing the hell out of myself, no real problems, even into middle age. Started a job working my ass off, dropped 3 minor health issues in a month. Now that I quit, 2 are back with another coming. My skinny wife has minor heart issues. Cannot convince her that sitting around her office and bed is making it worse.

Humans did not evolve to be fat or lazy. We have to eat simply and we have to move.
