And it has nothing to do with social status, wealth or political affiliation. According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), 35% of U.S. adults are obese. Obesity affects your quality of life and will cause you to die earlier than your peers. And how does it make […]

An ad for a new product caught my eye recently. It was for multi-grain Pringles. Now, I’ve got no “chip” on my shoulder about junk food when eaten in prudent moderation (meaning very little), but making the case for justifying junk food by making it “multi-grain” illustrates the problem in […]
