Soooo... corporate culpability is a real thing, as far as I'm concerned,

constant fight to eat reasonably.

Until you take responsibility for your own obesity,


I am _definitely_ not obese...

you'll remain fat.


I could lose 20...

Nobody forces you to buy any particular brand or order any particular
food.


If ur hungry, and they only make available more than you want or need, you
either starve or buy it. However, I _did_ have time to get to the 3rd store
and find a bag of peanuts that was _right sized_.

Supermarkets make salads and other healthy foods available like fruits
and vegetables.


Peanuts are healthy, more available (we don't have 24 hr food stores here, just
gas stations...) and taste a whale of a lot better.

To get what you need rather than what you want, point
your Nikes or Addidas in a differnt direction and stop whining please.


This isn't about me, its about corporate disregard for the health of the
popluation simply to increase their bottom line. I don't have a problem with
offering large portions. What I have a problem with is _not_ offering small
portions. Give people a break - make it easy to do the right thing.
