Ah, Doug has the solution again. Don't ban fat--ban profits.
Ah, Dave goes for the ad-hominem again.

At most, I suggested that the gov't banning competition &
free markets from the sugar business had helped create the
situation of Americans consuming such tremendous amounts of
sugar.
I got the idea you were in favor of free markets?
In the ideal world, people would look at the advertisements
for cheesburgers & fatty salty snacks and say "no thanks,
I'm not hungry just now." In the real world, advertising
works. Kinda scary if you think about it.
