It's a conspiracy if there's been a cover up of information by large corporations so that they can profit from the machine that they've created. Sounds like a textbook example of what the word conspiracy means...
I am not worried about the fat guy who says "so what, I am fat, I love this shit." We are all free to make health choices. I am worried about my mother-in-law who is now "pre-diabetic" because she can't be talked off of carbohydrates by me, due to lack of authority. She walks 5 miles/day, isn't overweight, and has probably a glass of wine a week. A rule follower through-and-through, I doubt she's every jay walked. YET, she has been "taught" about low fat diets that are "rich in whole grains."
It's a crock of shit, and I contend that it'll be a conspiracy proven to be fact that these corporations have violated laws to keep the machine rolling.
