A can of Coca Cola should cost £10 and a big sharing size bag of crisps should cost £25. That will teach them, and while we are it, they should be denied certain operations on the NHS until they stop their junk food habit.
Oh, and ban junk food in public places and inside pubs. If smokers can't enjoy a fag with their drink, fatties shouldn't be able to enjoy crisps or whatever. Go outside in the cold.
If someone is sitting next to me enjoying his tasty platter of whipped cream and gravy, it does me no harm. On the other hand, the thoughtless cunt who sits next to me with a lit cigarette is a real danger to my health.
This seems to be a pretty significant distinction.
