I’m not saying never feed your kids chicken fingers, but kids today have to learn better eating habits if their parents want to see them grow to become adults. Rather than a yearly list, maybe yahoo should make the worst food list a weekly thing and spam it out to everyone possible, so if nothing else, everyone can see on paper how bad that triple cheese burger really is. And if that doesn’t work … maybe they could try to hypnotize all two thirds of the fat people and convince them that if they eat anything on the bad food list that they will turn into a cow - literally.
