Obesity Channel - oops I meant Food Network

Oh... I meant to say the Food Network.  With obesity on the rise and everybody suing McDonald's and whatnot, how in the world is the Food Network immune?  This is porn for the obese -- and a gateway channel/drug for the soon to be obese.  This is worse than marijuana, people.  This is WAY worse than SpongeBob dragging down stupid ass test scores that in reality don't relate to jack shit.  Where's *my* research money? 

We outlawed commercials for cigarettes many, many moons ago because of the detrimental influence on the American populace, but food gorging is somehow OK with diabetes and other fat induced diseases leading the charts on American deaths.  What have you got to say about THAT, Man vs. Food?  Oh, I guess SpongeBob and SquidWord are solely to blame for our fat, lazy decline?  At least SpongeBob is not directly related to heart attacks. 

Just tune into the Food Network.  Within minutes you will see the over-rated, over-weight, super-ego Guy Fieri buzzing around in a sports car looking for the greasiest spoon in America with the largest portions.  Wait an hour and you will see Paula Deen smothering everything in butter/gravy and laughing diabolically while her fans have a triple bypass. 

Oh, yeah..... we're having fun.  I just can't see how everything else is super criticized while the exceedingly unhealthy food/fat gorging shows are glorified.  Why?  Is it because it does not involve drugs nor sex?  Heart disease is the number one killer of Americans (other obesity issues are closely follow) but the Food Network knows no constraints.  What gives?
