Definitely food for thought

The author feels he has a social responsibility to promote the health of the nation. While he appears a bit heavy-handed at times, he does hit home with his indictments. He includes some startling information about the sorry state of school lunch programs and advertiser's attempts to woo susceptible young children into unhealthy eating habits. Concerned with the childhood epidemics of obesity and eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia, he states that today's children are betrayed by their diet. Definitely food for thought.
