THIS JUST IN: Study Says 'Cheap, Fast Food Could Contribute to Obesity'

I mean in this world of microwavable news and drive-thru headlines, you would think this country would not have missed this before now. Fret no longer, fellow Americans. The American Cancer Society (ACS) has put those fears to rest, thanks to its latest press release.

In this “groundbreaking” release, the ACS cites a review that says fast food and its dastardly inexpensive price points are to blame for obesity.

Reasons for this rise in obesity have been suggested in the review, such as “snack food, automobiles, television, fast food, computer use, vending machines, suburban housing developments, and portion size.”

*facepalm* 

The “breaking news” continues to tell us things about the great American diet that we already knew, but turned our backs on daily.

After examining available evidence, the authors say widespread availability of inexpensive food appears to have the strongest link to obesity.
