Dr. Max Gomez saw the irony. He thanked the Heart Association for the eggs and bacon at the breakfast where he was keynote speaker.
Do you catch the irony? Organizations trying to prevent or help a disease but provide food choices that are counter to their mission.
This happens way too often. One of my first posts to this blog (Jan. 15, 2009) discussed the practice of a medical group providing soda, chips, and candy vending machines in their lobby or waiting room. Will the vendors at health fair that I'm attending this weekend have the same problem of not following their own advice?
People, let's take ourselves seriously. If we are trying to prevent disease, choose food to serve at your events that do not contribute to the problem!
