"Fat Tax "
The government want麓s to tax some food which they say make`s us all unhealthy I am sure we are all intelligent enough to know what麓s healthy for us and what is not I don麓t think it will make an ounce of difference if you eat pie and chips you will continue eating it I don`t think it will make you eat more salads and what麓s the alternative to cornflakes for breakfast what they don麓t tell you is how much of this unhealthy food you have to eat for it to be a big problem my opinion is it麓s all to do with life style
Answer:it's a load of crap -we all know what good and bad for you - we choose to eat the bad foods because we want to. I admit a bar of chocolate is alot cheaper than a pack of nuts so we would obviously choose the chocolate - but one thing we should say to them is if you increase the tax on unhealthy foods then reduce it on the healthy foods!!
If you ask me they are trying to recoup some of the losses they will make through people giving up smoking.
its easy how much unhealthy food makes it a problem ,, u get ruddy fat or have a stroke or a heart attack or......
Do you need someone to tell you you are getting fat...I think not ...take a look in the mirror or get on the scales. Simple really..a balanced diet.....but of course eating whats good for you is not always the easiest(or cheapest) option.
It's just another way of raising money through taxes.
