And even the world economic forum says meat will one day be a small treat and not a diet staple.
And they attack farming in general for being bad for the environment.
When you go after meats, dairy, vegetables, fruits and so on what else is left? Manufactured foods that's what.
And chocolate milk in school is hardly a concern. It's a small carton and that's it. If someone wants to complain about kids getting too much sugar they should look at the parents kids that let them drink energy drinks and sodas and eat garbage food.
All of these things have always been available so the only problem I see is our society sucks. Whatever happened to the food pyramid? School house rocks don't drown your food? Parents allowing kids to have a treat but still making them eat meat and vegetables? When being fat was considered a bad thing?
But oh no, our society, parents and leaders won't ever blame themselves. To solve problems their answer is always to ban something instead.
That's always our answer. Ban, because it gives you a sense of doing something without actually having to do anything. No one wants to actually look for the source of a problem and change it, they just want to ban it. One day we're going to ban ourselves out of everything enjoyable.
