Does anyone feel the food corporations are responsible for obesity and ill health in America?
In other countries their government's wouldn't allow the garbage that is put into our food. All the sugar, trans fat, preservatives. I believe it's because so may companies here are owned by Jews and because they control our government they will do whatever it takes to make a profit. People have to quit buying anything in the grocery store except fresh fruit, vegetables, canned fruit and veggies, frozen fruit and veggies and don't buy any dairy and don't buy any fod that are processed. Stay away from hotdogs, red meat, cheese, and pizza like the plague. If you don't think Jews have anything to do with it, then you research and see how may compnaies are owned by Jews and how many pharmaceutical companies are owned by Jews. Sooner or later if you keep hearing that Jews have done this and they have done that you have to wake up. Many of you will wake up after you get out of school and have business dealings with Jews. I have met many people who woke up real fast after they put together the fact they heqard bad things aout them and then the Jew has them bent over and giving them the shaft. The fact is all national restaurant chains and fast food companies put stuff in there to make you eat more. They use MSG to make you crave the food. The government should do something aout this, but they already know about it.

Who has filled your head with such nonsense? America's obesity problem has nothing to do with religion or government, nor is it the place of government to intervene. Personal freedom comes with personal responsibility. Adults are responsible for their own behavior and health related choices. The blame for failure to make good health choices does not fall on the shoulders of the American government. It falls squarely on individual citizens.

It's called self-control. I doubt there is some evil Jewish-based plan for making people obese. How'd you come up with that idea, throw darts at a board full of nouns and verbs?

Yes, I agree. All those growth hormones in chicken and beef must have an adverse effect on the health of consumers. And also why "purify" food to death and then re-introduce synthetic vitamins, flavours and colours to make them palatable? This happens now in Europe too, as the multinationals have gained a stranglehold on the food supplies. Fortunately we still have many small independent producers of foodstuffs, and believe it or not the European Commission is strongly in favour of this (another reason why it's been rubbished by the anti-European lobby). Globalisation is definitely a bad thing.

Jews have nothing to do with it, your full of crap learn more if you want to go debate.Its not the corporations fault they didn't tell the Bob to go eat a big mac at 3 am. It's called accountability. No one is putting a gun to people's head to eat fast foods. With that being said. I eat, hot-dogs dairy etc., I am not over weight, I rarely get sick. I have no illnesses. So have a warm glass of stfu.

Let me start this with a question. Have you been a bigot all of your life or is this something you are trying to perfect? It seems that you are just a mindless nematode that can't even think for yourself. If you think something is bad for you than don't eat it. You better hurry everyone is at the cliff getting ready to jump off.

In the US big corporations run the show, not only in food, in weapons, tobacco etc. Their aim in a quick profit, so they don't care what they sell or to who.

If that is the excuse you want to give for being overweight, go ahead and use it. But personal responsibility is probably something you should start thinking about.

Clever, how you put an intriguing question on the question on the question page. Only to find a racist rant when you click on it There's nothing wrong with the food so long as you don't make it your life's ambition to shove as much of it as you can in your mouth in one sitting. Get some self control (and a treadmill).

Look at yourself in the mirror if u want to blame anyone. You have the power to not eat certain foods if that's what u want to do. It's not the Governments job to control your eating habits.

Jews are not the problem we are our own worst enemy!!!!! Corporations can be eleminated by not buying their food. we have to do for ourselves what is right for our bodies. we are the consumers that keep these business open. stop buying and they will go out of business. Not to cause arguements, but sometime with limited income some people have had to resort to other means of obtaining what they eat. I think that we have to go back to the old days of farms, they had the best food around. We live in a fast food world and we have to change our way of thinking and planning. We have to go back to the basics in eating. Because it is so easy to pick something up on the run doen't mean we are not eating right. we can have some things at fast foods now that they are changing their menu. we have to educate ourselve with the menus and learn how to enjoy what we order. One thing i think all these places need is to grill meat, chicken rather than fry it. Red meat isn't good for us but once in a while it doesn't hurt. Fish and chicken and legumes are good for you but you have to know how to make it taste good for those who are on the go. for lunch a nice salad is good with grilled chicken breast sliced on it with a whole grain roll and diet soda or hot drink. but the one thing i have expierenced is that cold food will not keep the hunger down. we have to learn that hot food is better for you and it will keep the stomach satisfied. for lunch i have a ceasars salad with low fat shredded cheese on it and I put it in the micro wave to melt the cheese and it is so good because you get the flavors blending through out the salad. cooked food has a lot of good flavor. we have to check the frozen section for veggies if fresh ones don't meet the pocket book as you can get frozen veggies cheaper then fresh. but if you have to get fresh first and then frozen next and if you have to resort to can check for low salt veggies. Dairy products are good for you. but learn which ones to use and make it low fat, light and you need calcum for the body. I buy egg beater in a carton if i need eggs for anything. I get the ones that have no fat and even egg whites are good for you. Margine or oleo you can get low fat that have the good fat that we need and have the bad fat removed. You have to look a labels and see what it is that you need. Learn how to use it in your daily lives. just because it is low fat doesn't mean you over do it. Cheese is very good for bones but you have to watch it. Learn which cheese to buy. ask your doctor or a store dietition what you can buy that not only taste good but can be good for you. We have to learn to read first and if your not sure than ask a perfessional what is better. it will take trial and error when shopping and when you find it mark it down on paper what it is or save the label till it becomes part of your memory. another thing Breads. think about this. Have you ever had a sandwhich with white or whole wheat bread, finish it and still feel hungry. yup it has happened to me. today we have bakeries in stores and they can make the healthiest bread going. the secret to bread is that you go with homebaked bread from the bakery. Dark bread is not always good for you but it is the grains and how dense the grain that is good for you. 7 grain or 12 grain is probably the best for you. reason being is that when you eat it the carbs that are in it takes longer for the body to absorb it. So by the time the body says ooh carbs lets get it the carbs have passed from the upper GI to the Lower GI and your body only absorbs what it needs or less. These grains are hi in fibre an are very very good for you. they clean the bowl as well. As far as the question is concerned there is an old saying. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. If you feel these places are tempting go to a restraunt that serves you and get a good meal done up. They are understanding to peoples needs. Another thing take care of your body as no one else is going to. Take time for yourself and don't put presure on your self to rush and you can stay away from these corporations. when we stay from there we put them out of business. should they be responsible, no, who is the one that goes in there, you. stay out of those places.like I said you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. you can go to the door of these places but who is pushing you in and who is stopping you. you make that choise. you don't see people at the doors of MacDonalds pulling people off the road telling them that they have to eat there. Go to a healthy place to eat or go to the market and see what they have that would be better for you and to be honest take your lunch with you would be the first and formost of choices. think before you leave home. educate you and your family so that they will not go and be a victom of their own bodies. So food corporations should not be held responsible, the person who buys the food is responsible for what he or she eats. If we stop buying these foods they will slowly take them off the market and fast foods will slowly go out of business if they don't change their ways of menus. We as consumers have to complain to these companies not support them. that is how we become responsible people in society. They are doing good in the schools that is the first step in showing food corporations how we as consumers want things done. We are the spokes people. Take the bull by the horns and do something about these food corporations and we will see how much more we can get things done. write or email these places and tell them to how things could be better for us all if they had more of a variety of good things rather than things that are not good. you as people and parents plan your meals and get the family involved in preparing them and it doesn't have to be on persons responsiblity to do it all. take your kids while they are young and show them how to shop, show them why this food is good for you and they will inturn do the same for them selves. you would be surpise how much money one saves when you buy fresh or frozen. sorry I went off the question lol i do go off a bit. I love my food. lol sorry about the spelling as the spell checker isn't working.

Personal Responsibility will keep you eating healthy. The government has the responsibility of Inspecting our food supply and ensuring a safe supply. They require food companies to accurately label the food ingredients and additives used. They have evaluated the additives for safety and require limits where applicable. THE US FOOD SUPPLY IS THE SAFEST IN THE WORLD. If you don't like what is on the label- don't buy the product. Food companies are in business to make a profit, and are naturally good stewards of providing safe food, that people WILL Purchase, not avoid like the plague. American food companies should also be commended for the efforts in recent years to provide more natural, healthy, organic, foods, but you know what, they're just responding to their customers. PS: Possibly the Muslim terrorists invented trans fats as a attack on Americans. But we are fighting back, by eliminating them one city at a time:)

Wow, someone sure has some opinions. Is this really a question??? To answer what I thought was the question I would have to say that the world would be a better place if some of these food corporations would step up and try to make their product healthier. I don't believe that it is their full responsibility, however. People have to want to eat healthy. I agree with what I think you are saying in the sense that if people continue to buy this junk food than we are essentially saying that it is okay for these corporations to feed it to us. The new craze that you see everywhere now is "Now with 0 grams Trans FAT" and everything seems to taste the same to me, so why didn't they do this a long time ago??? The other problem is that you can't live off fresh fruit and vegetables alone. You just can't. Someone needs to take the responsibility of providing more healthy options (that don't cost double the price of the saturated fat versions), and Americans need to take the initiative to care more about what they are putting into their bodies and choose the healthier choice.

My, what a poor sad person you must be. The only one responsible for an American's weight is that individual person. I'm heavy, because I eat too much and exercise too little. My own fault, no one elses. And this whole antisemitic, Jews are out to get us thing is a bunch of bull crap, without the redeeming qualities of manure. "People" don't have to do anything. Especially not just because a bigoted nut job like you says so.

In the end each person is responsible for what he or she eats. The choice is there, and making a educated choice about the goodness of the food they eat is theirs to make. You can't blame companies when everyone has the choice to pick and make their own food at home
