And finally there's the food and beverage lobby, led by the Center for Consumer Freedom, which claims there's no obesity epidemic, that if there were it would be caused by lack of exercise not by caloric intake, and finally it would be marvelous if there were because being overweight is actually good for you.
These sorts of associations usually give themselves away by have articles with several paragraphs in a row starting with "And even if there were...." I'd be happier if the center was called the Center for Consumer Fatness, but I suppose they figure "freedom" has a nicer ring to it.
