#3 Hmmmm..... virtue!
Is there any food better than a Whataburger with Jalapenos at 2 a.m. in a pick up truck chased down by a Bud and followed by a Salem?

#5 There is most definitely a problem. Obesity is arguably the biggest health problem in the Western world. Censorship is definitely not the answer.

It's impossible to buy any kind of prepared food that doesn't have added sugar, often a lot. It drives me crazy trying to find foods that don't. I nearly went postal in the grocery store the other day after having read the ingredients on every type of prepared curry sauce in the store (about 50) and they all had significant amounts of added sugar. I was at the point of throwing jars on the floor and was only stopped by my daughter saying "Lets buy this one dad. It has the least sugar."
