    You might be interested in seeing this as well. It's a transcript of a BBC2 TV programme detailing how the 'World Sugar Research Organisation' and International Life Sciences Institute', fronts for the worlds sugar producers, have effectively nobbled investigations into the consumption of sugar and it's use in modern industrial food production by, among others, the world health organisation.

    Interesting stuff. Statistically speaking we're probably in more danger from the sugar industry than we are from Al Qaeda.
