[QUOTE="MontyVeda] We have people getting obese on a diet of sugar packed convenience food. People drinking too much, smoking too much... putting a strain on our health service... and you don't think anyone's allowed to suggest a healthier way of living ???

I'm a grown up and if I choose to do something that's bad for me, or even downright dangerous, it's my right to do so. I grew up in the 70's and 80's and back then kids were drinking just as much fizzy sugary drinks, and eating just as much junk food, as they do today. The reason we weren't fat back then is that we didn't sit around indoors all day gawking at the TV or playing computer games. We were out running around, climbing things, riding around on push bikes etc.
The same goes for the lardarse adults you see that are too lazy to walk a quarter of a mile to the shops so they take their car, or too lazy to walk home from the pub - so they call a minicab even though it's only a 10-minute walk.
The problem is not what people consume, it's the fact they don't DO any activity to work it off!
