Fat children still stubbornly exist

According to the AP, the "war" on fat kids is losing. How do we know? Well, mostly because there are still fat kids.

This may be shocking to the folks who usually support such measures because they sound so reasonable and just focus on encouraging healthy eating and activity. They shouldn't be so surprised. When the purpose is to go after fat people, then the continued existence of fat people will be seen as proof of the failure. Here's its also seen as proof of either lying or delusional kids.

The article pushes the latest blame laying for fat kids. What their mom ate while pregnant. "Taste buds" are apparently all mom's fault somehow. I somehow doubt the science on that is all that meaningful, but is obviously the latest way to spread blame for fatness.
