At the top of the pyramid there are also vegetables. For some reason that is left out in some of the media converge.

Kennedy said to avoid the sugary, processed foods that he labels as poisonous to health. (Does any sane person disagree with this?)

“My message is clear: Eat real food,” Mr. Kennedy said (Does any sane person disagree with this?)

      Huh?

      Yeah, he's wrong about many things. But hurling epithets and constructing an argument via ad hominem isn't necessary. You can defeat his claims directly.

      And FWIW, the claim that eating unprocessed "whole" foods is healthy is almost certainly true.

These evil people want us sick and hospitalized with chronic disease from eating this crap. Now that it's political, hopefully people will see it for the bullshit it really is.
