When Cookies & Candy Aren't Dandy

Think about your child's (or a child that you know) last fund raiser. What item was sold?  Healthy beef jerky? Honey nut rice cakes? Perhaps packets of sugar free gum? No? What about sugar free candy?

You've probably already sensed the meat of this article, that being, we're in a world where obesity is an epidemic, yet the very future of our world lacks our support. In a world where examples speak louder than words, nutrition is falling by the wayside.

More and more kids are becoming severely obese. It's not fun when you're a fat kid; we've all either been the brunt of a fat joke at school or saw it happen to someone else in our lifetime. Not fun at all.

Yet here we are, in charge, proud of our scout cookies, proud of our kid's soccer team's foot-long peanut log that we're pitching to friends and family. It's all sorta nuts, isn't it?

Want to help? Point out this article to your friends and loved ones - and especially those in charge of fundraiser's. If you are taking part in a fundraiser, suggest a healthy product to sell. Most of the time, people don't really care about the product anyway; they're looking to help the kid's certain fundraiser project.

And cheers to the Girl Scouts whose line of cookies and ice cream come in calorie-friendly versions for those watching their good waistline and their good health.
