I look at this and then I look at the sugar industry attacking the World Health Organization report on the negative affects of excessive dietary sugar.

These taken together make me start to see fast food as something of a corporate juggernaut laying waste to western food culture. To them, your diabetes would kinda just be another moneymaking opportunity for their friends in the pharmecuticals division.

I agree that there is a right to fight lawsuits over fast food; at the same time though people need to learn that there's more to food culture than school lunches and Big Macs.

What amazes me is that gourmets are now "fighting the power" through the "slow food movement". (www.slowfood.com).
