America Dies on Dunkin
Incredibly a doctor was fired from his post at the Bay County Health Department in Florida for posting catchy slogans on an electronic sign reminding folks to think about what they eat. Some of his classics include:
Sweet Tea = Liquid Sugar
Hamburger = Spare Tire
French Fires = Thunder Thighs
and my favorite… America Dies on Dunkin.
Well that’s where the good doc, Jason Newsom, got fired! You see a county commissioner and two lawyers owned Dunkin Donut shops in Panama City, Florida – and lawyers do what they do best and that is to threatened a law suit. Even folks within his own department (mind you this is a supposed “health department”) rallied against him when he banned donuts from staff meetings.
Well the doc got the ax and he is now reapplying for his old job. I would be amazed if he got it back, frankly. Just goes to show you how financial interests will trump health interests even at the “health department.”
oh and I would add… America gets Fat on Dunkin.
