Apologies if this has already been posted but I was incensed to read this in the paper:

Check out the list of ad banned items, peanuts are banned but not brazils? I know it is just the banning of the ads, not the foods themselves, but just being on the banned ads list will make people think that the foods are bad and that those that escaped the ban are good. It seems to me that the lists should be the other way round as it seems to be OK to advertise a chicken curry with rice ready meal (origin of chicken probably highly suspicious + innumerable additives) and white bread but not some good bacon and sausages and a bit of Greek yoghurt. Any comments?

I get it... no cheese, bacon, peanuts or greek yogurt, but let's make sure they can still advertise White Bread, canned fruit in syrup, and (faint) MALT LOAF!

My goodness........ my husband begs for me to get him SOREEN malt loaf during the holidays, I think it's ingredients are: Sugar, liquid sugar, sultanas, sugar, malt (which is sugar), and ummm.. yeah, sugar. ACK!
