Burt Wolf said "there are no good foods or bad foods, only appropriate and inappropriate serving portions." Seeing that I'm in America where the only forbidden foods are human flesh and the flesh of pet animals and/or endangered species, I wouldn't think of imposing outright bans...but I would want some top limits set on the portions served by restaurants and fast food franchises and such. Bars cut patrons off when they've had their limit of alcoholic drinks, so why not set a calorie ceiling? If somebody is still hungry, they can still get food someplace else, but they'd have to do some WALKING first.
