Not Because They're Fat Or Unhealthy

Germans are being ordered by health authorities to lay off the Schnitzel and Bratwurst, not because it's making them fat or damaging their hearts, but because it harms the planet.

This is wrong on so many levels it's not even funny. What government tells its citizens what it can and cannot eat? Germany, apparently.

Any government that provides health care for its citizens will eventually feel it has the right to dictate how those citizens take care of their bodies. The government has an investment, after all.
