THE EPIDEMIC THAT ISN'T

The Sydney Morning Herald voices the concern of the nutrition Nazis:

Obesity experts have called on Cricket Australia to end its sponsorship deal with the fried chicken chain KFC, saying the relationship is "unhelpful and irresponsible" during a childhood obesity epidemic.

Only yesterday from the ABC:

New government research shows that levels of childhood obesity have remained largely unchanged for the past decade.

The relatively unchanged levels of childhood obesity comes despite a common conception in today's society that Australian children are in the grip of an obesity epidemic.

It's the busybody epidemic that needs to be controlled.
