The Times of London reported in January that the British government, in considering programs to reduce the number of overweight children, is studying one option of handing out shopping vouchers to kids who lose weight and keep it off.

Hopefully none of those vouchers are for food  :zoinks:

Yeah, but the great irony is that they will probably find a way to use those vouchers to purchase mass quantities bacon flavored crisps, Terry's Chocolate Oranges and the like, and will make their weight loss a moot point.

It will lead to yo-yo dieting.

Lose weight -> get hungry, use vouchers -> put on weight -> etc ad infinitum

The government should hand out amphetamine vouchers to fat kids.
