Re: Debate
The article doesn't even mention the kids portliness. Is obesity normal for 5 year olds in Calgary?

Re: Debate
Like I said it was bloody obvious people would focus on the size of the kid.
Once more we see indicators that people are visual and NOT ceberal (yes even those who usually seem quite intelligent)

Re: Debate
Why do these threads always become high maintenance.
Do you think you could manage to refrain from breaking rule 2? You know, the one regarding vulgar and sexually explicit language etc....

The purpose of the article was the naming of the F'in curry, NOT the relative merits of being a fat f**ker (in any meaning of the term).

perhaps the focus should be on the size of the child (and not the stupid curry) and how it is extremely unfair of the parents to inflict this on a poor child who isn't yet old enough to make "good' food choices for himself and likely may not as a result of his formative years face filling of crap!

Re: Debate
OK lets throw this one out there, The article is about the naming of what is (supposedly) an East Indian dish, the number of obese East Indian kids is significantly lower than the number of Obese Caucasian or Black or Native Kids so Perhaps the focus should be on naming these dishes to appeal to white (etc) kids and therefore reduce the incidence of childhooid obesity?
