Dude, something has to give. We have an obesity crisis on top of a gazillion other epidemics affecting the US.

I promise you banning HFCS isn't going to solve obesity.

Obesity in America is caused by multiple things all going on at the same time. They are:

1. Lack of physical activity. Most Americans drive everywhere and walk only the minimum amount necessary and then many go on to become couch potatoes in their spare time
2. Long working hours & long commute times leave many with little time to cook. So many turn to fast food or prepackaged unhealthy shit they can microwave.
3. Poor mental health causes people to eat as a coping mechanism.
4. Americans just straight up eat too much fucking meat. Especially beef. Especially fatty beef like Ribeyes. Also stuff like pork sausage. We need to chill with the meat and eat more veggies.
