I ask myself that a lot Leash (I'd ask others but no-one will listen). I also wonder how companies are allowed to advertise the way they do. I saw an ad for LCM's last night - a product that the Parents' Jury found was amongst the top 3 unhealthy lunch box snacks - and the ad was promoting them as healthy "with the goodness of rice" (white rice mind you, chock full of sugar and salt). How can they be allowed to mislead people like that, especially when the government is supposedly serious about tackling children's health?

LCM's oh my... has anyone actually tasted one of those??? *gag* I bought a box once for my DD when she was about 4... had a taste and thought "WTF this tastes like plastic sugar!" I prompty threw the box out and I rarely waste food... but that wasn't food. I swear in each bubble of rice was a puff of toxic plastic gas... it reminded me of gap filler.
