Government Regulating Food – Good or Bad?

John Stossel wrote up a piece for Human Events talking about the government and food.  Many in the government have talked about regulating the kinds of food we eat.  There are even regulations that take away Trans-fats.

He says that the government that pays for your healthcare will want to regulate your refrigerator.

What do you think?  Does the government have the right to tell you, or your kids, what you or they should eat?
