The idea is one that borders on the facetious. But why not? Let’s look at the facts.

America is a country that has, over the last two centuries, idealized the model of the slim woman. This is relatively modern concept, as when you look at the paintings of the renaissance, women are nice and rounded. The Mona Lisa herself seems to be smiling in hearty rememberance of a Midnight snack.

In any case, be that as it may, every woman’s magazine talks about slimming and losing weight. In addition to that, every doctor is crying out for American’s to start lowering the waistlines to prevent heart disease, and other obesity related problems. This has always been difficult to follow, simply because we all love eating.

However, we now have another incentive to eat less. The rising prices of groceries mean that we are paying more to eat the same amount of food. How about another strategy, eat less, to pay the same amount of money? I kid you not! It makes sense that every American should use this time of crisis to do what matters most to them.

It’s a Godsend. It seems that this is the perfect opportunity for parents to give their kid an excuse for making them eat less. It’s the economy! It’s not their fault. What a way to do the right thing for your child!
