Smaller packets urged for fattening foods | the Daily Mail

Smaller packets urged for fattening foods the Daily Mail
Now if you want to see crazy click thelink above.
Not sure about the rest of the world but certainly in the UK for many years in fact zillions since i was a child , the size of confectionery bars, packets of crisps ( potato chips) has been decreasing at an alarming rate, and the prices at a similar rate have increased. Now due to obesity on a huge scale in England the food standard agency is asking companies to reduce the size of the packets. I always knew that one day they would be charging for fresh air but i thought that it would be in the form of yet another government tax. Do you think these agencies are getting a kick back from the food manufactures to help make more profits. Maybe they should put them back to normal size there was little obesity when i was a kid, you could only eat 1 bar a day since you were full. Mind you we had proper cooked meals on the table not fast food everyday.
