People? Free to decide? Is that why drugs are illegal, alcohol/tobacco is illegal till you're 18, medications need to be perscribed, etc? THAT'S American freedom? When something is harmful, the Government feels that they have to protect people from it, so why not protect them from food?
On that note, Canada is making marijuana less illegal and making trans-fats illegal. What a country!
I miss McDonald's old saying, "There's a little McDonalds in everyone". Damn rights there is! Right here *points at chest*
