The other side of the story

From Instapundit today-- Sandy Szwarc's merciless take on the new guidelines:

The 2005 Dietary Guidelines became untenable the instant they abandoned the long-term pledge to promote better health for all Americans and instead made everything about weight..... What happened to common sense? There's nothing "sensible" about these guidelines. They're not just advising "eat a healthful variety of foods, enjoy everything in moderation and get some activity each day that you enjoy." It's a DIET -- and an extreme one at that -- masquerading as "healthy eating."
