Studies show the worse medical crisis in on the way with an upcoming generation of obese youth. I think most of it's bad parenting, you don't buy it, they can't eat it, but most parents can't say no to anything lil Timmy wants to eat.

Add to that kids today get 30-50% less exercise, mostly due to playing video games and many schools limit gym.

All day my sons friends knock on the door, I tell him to go outside, but they want to play video games, stating it's so hot, not in my house, out you go..

Anyway, time to go play some SH4.

I wonder if a solution would be to remove all parking lots by grocery stores and mandate that the closest parking lot must be one mile from any grocery store.

At least it would force people to walk for their food. In today's society, it is far too easy to obtain food with minimal physical effort.

Or maybe all pieces of meat would be hanging from a fast moving hook and you actually had to capture it
