Researcher Links Obesity, Food Portions

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. - With self-refilling bowls of soup and jumbo buckets of stale popcorn, professor Brian Wansink has identified one culprit for U.S. obesity: excessive food portions.

Man, I wish I had thought of that. Glad to see my tax dollars are going to research projects such as this one.

Without the brilliant work of Brian, would we ever know what really caused obesity? Surely it would be years before someone connected over-eating to obesity. It just seems too outside the realm of possibilities.

But thanks to Brian and friends we no longer have to worry if eating 20 Big Macs might possibly be unhealthy AND cause obesity. Now we know.

Thanks again Brian!
