Perhaps we should all eat a little less
8:48am Monday 5th May 2008
SIR - In the war years and just after food was rationed, it is said people were healthier with just enough food. Now, with the price of food going up at a tremendous rate, it might not be a bad thing if we all ended up eating less.
It is said that one in four children starting school in Worcestershire are over-weight or obese.
So with the high price of food and a bit of belt-pulling in it might not be a bad thing.
JOHN SHEARON, Worcester.
