The hypocrisy aside, do you intend to eat more cheese?

This blog discusses how the USDA is trying to get Americans to eat more cheese.

It is a pretty sneaky way to get lots more milk fat calories into the American diet.
As if that is needed.
But it appears that the USDA would like us to think that it is our duty to prop up the dairy farmers.
Even if more Americans become increasingly fat in the process.
I only drink skim milk and I rarely eat cheese. Way too much fat and salt.
But gosh, I hate to be unpatriotic.
I think I will try to do my civic duty in other ways.
BTW, what happened to the first lady’s campaign to shrink America’s collective booty?
Anyway, do you intend to pack a little more junk in your trunk in order to do your duty and prop up the dairy farmers?
