Political Correctness once again. The facts are fried food turns otherwise healthy food into tasty but unhealthy food. The facts are the vast majority of Obese people in the US are folks that eat lots of fried food. The facts are most of the consumption of deep fried food occurs in Black and Hispanic neighborhoods. One doesn't have to be a PHd to just go to a neighborhood and observe the shape of folks over 20 yrs of age where fried food is a staple. And its the same where folks get most of their calories from rice.

The kicker is, how do we get protein and veggies to folks of limited means and /or teach them more healthy ways of cooking their protein? Maybe we bring back the 1960's present day version of "Home Economics" I took in High School where I learned to cook.
