I don’t know of anyone who was held down while junk food was stuffed down their throats. Give me a break! The individual has the choice: eat crap and get fat or eat healthy — one should be able to decide. Unless your name is Bloomberg and he’ll make the decision for you. Nanny state here we come. And I think the 30% obesity rate in C.R. doesn’t have to wait until 2015 – look around and weep.

as to the control monkeys that want to dictate what is grown, how people choose to live, what is eaten etc. there will be a special place for you when you die and it won’t be nice.

Wrold’s leader in obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and on and on…..and now the Costa Rican government is making strides to permit GMO’s! In 30 years that may well be the new cigarettes, or soft drink……
