ok i am gonna weigh in here i worked for years for a farmer who raised cows the butchering kind. the over weight problem in americia does not extend from sugar and such. its the hormones that are enjected in the cows and pigs to make them frow faster and bigger. its a reaction to these substances and instead of banning them the goverment caves to big business and wont do shit about it. good case and point when i was a kid a 13 yr old girl was straight as a 2x4 now the 13 yr old girls have tits and hips like pam anderson you cant tell me this is not a effect of the groth hormones injected in to the cows that transfer to the milk and meats
