Anthony Bourdain talks with Keith Olbermann about the obesity problem in the U.S.
I actually really like the show Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations even though much of it is about how much he loves meat. So as you can imagine, we do not see eye-to-eye on food but in this interview, I can really get behind what he says. They are discussing a newly released report from The Lancet (a British medical journal) that states 50% of Americans will be obese in 2030 if things continue as they are now. They conclude that the main way to halt this trend is by government intervention. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't, but the thought that 50% will be obese is staggering. And this is obese, not just overweight.
So do something about it. Put down that soda and make some "green" juice. Have a green smoothie instead of a milkshake. Eat something from the produce aisles rather than the overly processed and nutritionally devoid "food" section. We each have to take responsibility for our own health. Garbage in, garbage out.
