More bans from the Nanny state

Senate Bill 1192 was proposed by Senate Majority Leader Bill Monning with the intent to combat childhood obesity. It passed the Assembly on Thursday.

Though the bill forces restaurants to only offer unflavored milk or water with children's meals, patrons will be allowed to separately purchase other beverages of their choice, such as soda or juice.

So basically all major fast food chains as well as some other places will have to just give water or milk with a meal and you will have to pay extra for what the kid actually wants. I am guessing that most of the places will only offer water since they will just make some more money off of the parents.

They left out a maximum calorie or fat limit for kids meals if they are supposed to care about overweight kids.
Sad, California could be a nice place.

Soda was a luxury item in my house when I was a kid till I joined the Army. Even then it was a Generic brand. Prolly how I stayed thin.

We were so poor that every once in a blue moon, mom would come home with a bag of 15 or so cheese burgers from Mc Donalds and it was like Christmas.

That and walking up hill, both ways, for five miles going to school.

America's future is fatass future and there is nothing that anyone can do about it. We want to be a fatass, it's our right to be a fatass, and we're gonna be a fatass and that's all there is to say about it. We're waddling into a dystopian fatass future, and we like it.

On paydays my Mom would buy one two liter of Dr Pepper and that's it. We did get a lot of Kool-Aid though.

I definitely need to set a better example for my kiddos than I have..

When I was a kid, Mom would occasionally buy one or two quart-sized colas ("Cragmont," I think?) from Safeway. It was their store brand.

They were 10 cents each, and came in glass bottles (returnable IIRC).

Right there with you. Once in a great while though my mom would get herself a 2 liter of Pepsi, so I would get a sip when she had one. Otherwise it was water or Kool-Aid. McDonalds was a treat and forget about Mazzios. The only pizza we would get was little ceasers since it was cheap with two pizzas that barely fed me, my brother, two sisters and my mom. It wasn't until I was on my own did I start to drink a lot of pop.
