Rationing of Fatty Foods

The petition is entitled reintroduce food rationing to aid in the fight against obesity and the explanatory notes say
"Fatty foods should be rationed so that no one can overeat to such an extent that they become a burden to the NHS."

I hate the phrase "nanny state" and I generally object when people describe proposals as being a step towards one.

However.

NANNY STATE! NANNY STATE! YOU CAN'T HAVE MY CHOCOLATE. OR MY CHEEEEEEEEEESE!

Thank you.
