Isn't that like trying to get everyone to lose weight by only selling crisps in bumper 175g packets?
The sale of confectioneries that resemble tobacco products will also be banned. I would love to see some research on shapes of sweets eaten as a child affecting adult patterns: surely if there was a correlation, we'd all be eating huge marshmallow flogs and fizz bombs and enormous white mice.
Although now that I think of it, white mice would explain the 'sweet mice' pizza topping.
Off to ponder that one further...

Interesting - so interesting that I have a whole aticle on my blog based on this snippet of yours. Go see!
In fact, in Sweden the average pack of crisps IS about 150g - small ones are the exception. Perhaps this means the Swedes can control their chip-eating, although I cannot: I am programmed on those 46g bags to keep shovelling until the pack is empty.
I was in Oslo a few years back and in a bar there you could buy individual cigarettes, in little shot glasses. Now _that's_ a civilised country!
Just back from your blog - funny entry, and so true. Maybe they should stop selling individual bottles of alcopops; if you're gonna have a drink you need to buy a 12-pack, show some commitment for Heaven's sake. That'll dissuade teenage girls in their droves.
I'm just sure of it.
