US chould learn a thing or two.

On: Eat Right, Earn an iPod

The BBC is reporting on the UK government's latest policy to tackle obesity - through offering iPods and XBoxes to pupils. The lucky lads and lasses of 29 Glasgow secondary schools will be part of the pioneering scheme, which utilises the newly introduced swipe-card canteens to create a system of the 'better you eat, the bigger the treat'.

After reading the entire BBC article, I was struck with the thought that perhapps the US could take a leason here. The US leads the world in obesity and this could offer one solution. Having been a child once myself, I can somewhat remember how the mind works. Bribe them, and they will come. Any parent will agree.
