Obesity is getting ridiculous and while i certainly dont blame the food industry, I blame it on people being lazy. But I dont think this helps either that they can bend the rules so much and get away with it. A lot of people dont know how to read labels either so it often times does come down to the name. |
I'm not twisting it, and I'm not defending it. What I'm saying is that I expect it. I expect companies to try and maximise profits, which may very well include doing something that I personally find wrong. I therefore take it upon myself to learn about these things, and either decide the practices are an acceptable tradeoff (by purchasing the product anyway), or deciding that I can't support such a practice (by not purchasing the product).
Again, I find it more sad that people are unaware of such things going on more than I find it sad that these things are happening at all. People have been taking advantage of each other since the beginning of time. Now is no different.
