Plump is out of the question?

Following on from my remarks of 3 days ago: we’re now being told that two bad harvests in a row, and the wet weather in 2012, mean that food prices will soar, no one will be able to afford to over-eat, obesity will become a thing of the past, saving the NHS a fortune, and everyone will die about six years sooner, doing wonders for the public sector pension deficit. Isn’t it amazing how the universe solves our problems!
