H/T Old Holborn for this load of utter nanny state shite.
Pork pies, sausage rolls and packs of crisps should all be shrunk in size to tackle Britain’s obesity epidemic, the Government’s chief food advisor has recommended.
Here’s a better idea: everyone at the Food Standards Agency gets a permanent, unpaid vacation, starting now.
How’s that sound?
No doubt Walkers, Cadbury, Greggs the baker et al are rubbing their hands in glee and laughing all the way to the bank at this news. What, did you think smaller products will lead to lower prices? Hah, yeah. Right. That’s likely. The government throw the industry a “Fuck the consumers- with our sanction” card, and you can be sure it’ll be played.
