    Last August, I wrote a post entitled – The Future of Health Food

    In that post, I predicted a future where healthy food & nutrition would have little to do with this…

    or this…

    Instead, it would have everything to do with this…

    And like a modern day Nostradamus, I was 100% correct.

    nestle health science 150x150 When You Think Health Food, Think NestléIn a press release issued yesterday, the Swiss food giant Nestlé has announced that it would seek to expand into the profitable health and wellness sectors by setting up a new unit (Nestlé Health Science) and investing hundreds of millions of dollars in medical research (Nestle Institute of Health Sciences).

    According to the Nestlé, these two separate organisations will allow Nestlé to develop the innovative area of personalised health science nutrition to prevent and treat health conditions such as diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer’s disease, which are placing an unsustainable burden on the world’s healthcare systems.

    .

    Ironic….the company that brings you frozen pizza, ice cream, artificial coffee creamer and Goobers is going to become the world’s largest producer of healthy food.

    .

    And in other news…an alliance of the world’s largest drug cartels has decided to expand into the profitable drug rehabilitation sector by setting up a new unit (Narcotic Addiction Health Science) and investing hundreds of millions of dollars in drug rehabilitation research (Narcotic Institute of Health Sciences).

    fat canadian Ontario is Fat

    Up here in Canada (especially in my hometown of Toronto, Ontario), there is a large chunk of the population that considers itself “superior” to our American cousins.

    We start fewer wars, we’re better educated, we have lower crime rates, we don’t watch Two and a Half Men, we’ve never elected a Bush and we’re not all fat & addicted to deep fried pizza.

    U.S. Obesity Stats for 2009

    Unfortunately, as it turns out…we did go to war in Afghanistan, our high school dropout rates are rising year after year, our favorite tv show is Survivor, we elected Stephen Harper and according to this study….

    70% of Ontario adults are either overweight or obese, and have a strong prevalence of high blood pressure that could lead to heart attack or stroke.

    And if my university mathematics are correct, that means that only 30% of Ontarians should be proud to take their shirts off at the beach.

    30%

    Just like Mississippi…the fattest state in the republic.

    WTF!!!

    Perhaps it’s time for my smug Canadian brothers & sisters to put down their wobbly pops, throw out that tub o’ poutine, get up off their rotund derrières and start developing some health habits.
