| Eating well costs less than eating like McDonalds, you just have to be willing to spend a few minutes preparing food at your home. Basically don't be ing lazy. |

| In the nation of Denmark, taxes are generally higher than in the United States. Over this weekend, a new tax went into impact. All saturated fats in food in Denmark will be taxed in an effort to lower consumption, which some call an ineffective effort. Denmark levies first-ever saturated fat tax. This issue will be another problem of lower-income families because they will pay more for the food consumption as the percentage of their total income. More people will be affected by these law because not all have a big salary to buy what they need. |

As much as I love this, I do hope that at the same time they are going to make healthy, fresh food cheaper/more accessible. While I hate fat s, there are many people who buy low grade food because that's all their socioeconomic standing will allow them to get hold of. |
My thoughts too. Damn it, you and I would get along far too well in person for my liking.

You know this excuse seems to keep sounding like one that people in the US would make where as in Denmark I do not think it is as big of an issue. |
