Now, how to practically implement this.. I think the government should subsidize (hope this is the right word) certain foods, to make them cheaper to buy. I can definitely see how tempting it must be to buy prepared frozen dinners or fast food or whatever for your children, when it's both 20 times easier AND cheaper. Make the healthy alternatives cheaper, and the parents have an incentive to cook healthy food. In the same vein, making stricter rules for what can go into pre-cooked dinners, or what fast food chains are allowed to sell, would both make those alternatives less unhealthy, and more expensive (which imo would be a good thing).
Fabian, Let's say that we exist in a world where all of our perceptions of color are different - for example, a photo negative, although that doesn't have to be the permutation from current color to new color. We could just as easily "cycle" up the rainbow one color and leave brown, black etc. the same.

We could just as easily "cycle" up the rainbow one color and leave brown, black etc. the same. One question that comes to mind is: would the colors would all have the same names they do now, or all have the name of the color they used to be, or a mix of the two? Could that vary between languages? Wandering down that thought road, you might wonder if we even all see the actual same shade or not for each color, and have just become used to our view and learned our color definitions that way. Even something outlandish such as if our brains are built in a way to take these different brain-mapped colors and turn them into the mostly-pleasing colors we see today is completely unanswerable and mostly stupid but a pretty out-there question nonetheless. However, all of those questions pale in comparison to the most interesting question I can think of in this context, which is what I'm "officially" asking you in this thread: R U NOOB?
Granola recipe:
5 cups rolled oats
1 cup sesame seeds
1 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup wheat bran
1 cup crumbled/chopped walnuts
1 cup canola oil
1 cup honey
1 cup dried cranberries
Mix together dry ingredients (not counting the cranberries). Heat oil
and honey on the stove to mix them, then mix in with the dry
ingredients. Add any spices at this point (cinnamon, etc. -- whatever
you add, you'll need a lot!). Bake on a cookie sheet at 350°F for 30
minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven, pour into a fresh
mixing bowl. Mix in cranberries, allow to cool.Edit: I think I understand now: It's my avatar, isn't it? It makes me look angry.
