CNN Special Investigations Unit:
"What if they went one step further and told you what you could and could not eat?"
I don't know about you but I'd be thrilled. Obviously, the foods we eat that are unhealthy, we eat because they're available to us. If they weren't available, we wouldn't eat them. Maybe we'd eat more of other things but at least they'd be healthier. Like trans fats have been banned almost completely. It's like banning drugs and unhealy things like that. Things that kill people should be banned, especially when people don't know they increase heart disease and decrease life span. Frankly, cigarettes should be banned, alcohol should be banned. Even though it's been tried and failed in the past, it should be treated like illegal drugs. If the government says they're illegal, they're illegal. You can practice any religion you want here and our governments are voted on by the people but that government should take control of the sick discusting foods companies are selling. Obeisity is so high because companies are making worse foods than ever and the government is allowing it.
They did a test and people who could not see how many chicken wings they'd eaten (waiters took their plate w/the bones and replaced it with a clean plate) ate 14% more chicken than those who could see that they'd eaten. Then when leaving, 3/4 people took cookie that were offered at the door. Then when candy was placed on desks at worker's cubicles, then after a period of time it was moved six feet away, they ate 5% less than when it was on their desk.
"deconstructing the twinkie is like deconstructing the universe. Some look up at the sky and say how beautiful, others try to count the stars."
Kathy Griffin won an Emmy!! and I missed it, I don't watch those stupid award shows. I'm watching Larry King Live [again] and she said Bill O'Riley called her a pinhead. she says, very sarcastically after they made such a thing about her sayng "jesus can suck it" that jesus is not busy in Darfur, he's out making sure so and so's premier banked $10mil. and then Sally Field "the flying nun" was censored saying "if [something] then there would be no god damn war in the first place." I don't remember what she said but they show both uncensored clips of Kathy & Sally Field on Larry King. This is America, that means FREE SPEACH, FREEDOM OF RELIGION and all that. Like if you look close at Larry King, it's like his smiling is his way of cracking up laughing. He NEVER LAUGHS and I can't imagine how people on his show aren't totally intinmidated, especially comedians like Kathy Griffin. Here she is telling joke after joke and he doesn't laugh ONCE. Okay, maybe once but I think it just slipped. OMG and he likes Ryan Seacrest. I can't believe she went with the cofounder of Apple...he's apparently very shy and "He's like einstein smart." she tried to make him talk to press.
