A young, overweight Mom entered the convenience store the other day and gave her child a choice of what to have for breakfast. The child, appearing about six years old and overweight too, chose the strawberry cr�me wafers for $0.99, a mass of bleached flour and sugar void of vitamins, minerals, protein and fiber.
It's time we stop feeding our kids junk. Bad diet is adversely affecting the minds and bodies of a whole generation, the least problems of which may be physical obesity.

�I�m a pure patriot, a total American, and I don�t see things any other way,� said Beth Agami, mother of fallen hero, Specialist Daniel J. Agami, killed in action in Iraq on June 21, 2007.
