Benji, I am actually curious: how do you feel about the whole Frosted Mini-Wheats thing where they put something on the box like "children who consume this product demonstrate increased attentiveness" and it turns out that the omitted words of the study were "compared to kids who didn't eat breakfast at all"? I mean, I'm assuming that we're in agreement that that's a bad thing, but is the burden on every consumer to research every claim that any company poses to them?
Or is it that "the people (who encountered the news story) and got upset enough about it should boycott and hopefully be enough to stir change and if they don't then its just too bad that not enough people care/are informed/etc"?
