Globalization of B.S. -American Fat comes to China.

Globalization's new B.S.A (bull-shit announcements) just increased.

It all started with fast-food.........

........................In a place where there was little, if unknown cancer cases, and childhood obesity was unheard of, fast-food chains emerged, promising "Western" food purchased with a good 'ol capitalistic ideology.....

Food that is bad for you, food that has no quality, but hey! It's cheap! And American!


Having a choice to eat fast food is one thing, but having a government agenda tacked on to a "Western" diet is another...

China's government is telling their lactose-intolerant individuals that they have a dream!

As stated by China's Premier Win Jiabao, "I have a dream to provide every Chinese...sufficient milk each day"

Hmmm...somehow that translated differently for me...


... "I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out"....the rest of their lives ill by being fed agriculture propaganda!

Why might they be ill?

Because the Chinese, like 75% of the world's population, naturally has trouble digesting enzymes in milk after the age span of 3-5 years.

I don't know if the dairy industry caught this, but the least lactose-intolerant individuals are white (gasp! coincidence?)...as far as those "unfortunate" people...

95% of Africans are intolerant..
90% of Asians are intolerant...
90% of Indians are intolerant...
75% of Mexican Americans are intolerant...
60% of Mediterraneans are intolerant...

and only 15% of North American Whites are lactose intolerant. But don't worry, being such evaders or responsibility to the world's problems as a whole, we got a pill for that...

I don't mind choices for your diet, but with choices also comes social responsibility, especially for the children. And especially if the government pushes it onto a nation that had plenty of calcium for thousands of years from leafy greens, soy, and fish.



1 in 5 Chinese is now obese or overweight. (And this was before the diary/calcium with saturated fat craze...)

With China's dairy consumption increasing, I believe it is a good time to invest in some Lactaid stocks. ......

............Uphold your American capitalistic ethic....by buying stock in Lactaid (McNeil Nutritionals, LLC from Johnson and Johnson) so the Chinese can eat more of that deeeelicous dairy that we influenced upon them! Someone has to profit, after all, we are America.
