A lot of different groups had to join forces to fight the tobacco companies and smoking. (And this fight still has to continue as I still see a lot of smoking including among teens).

Similarly I believe a lot of different groups with distinct philosophies need to unite and fight the fast food companies and the processed food producers. I think we have a public health nightmare with junk food but one that is not nearly as obvious to the American public as is the tobacco issue.

Educating the public is key and if all of these groups devote all of their time and energies into fighting among themselves, this basic and crucial message will be completely lost. Again:
