The FDA announced its plans to remove salt from the American diet. Not too long from now we will also see regulations that require the removal of all sugar, caffeine, food with fat contents exceeding 20 percent of the total calories, dairy products, red meat and cholesterol. What will be left? You guessed it, oatmeal (and I don’t mean cookies) and brussel sprouts every meal of every day.
And if your body weight gets beyond the government mandated level for your height and age then you lose the right to your oatmeal.
The logic for these changes is simple. The government knows best what is good for you and if you don’t have good enough sense to take care of that body of yours the government will mandate compliance.
Now that the government is going to be paying for most if not all of your health care costs, they will no longer put up with your dietary indiscretions.
