Long time lurker who just joined to share my rage about what I just saw. I like to watch the show Shark Tank (Australian Version). If you haven't seen it, basically small businesses/inventors pitch their ideas to a panel of investors (sharks) to try and get an investment to grow their business.
The latest episode (S02 E12) can be watched here: http://tenplay.com.au/channel-ten/shark-tank
The last pitch is from two women who want to sell portable commercial kitchens to primary schools so kids can learn cooking. They start their presentation off with a spiel about the rising obesity epidemic and how 1/4 of kids are overweight or obese. Seems fair enough right?
But something is a bit off with the picture. Oh that's right, one of them is a hypocritical butter-guzzling obeast. Pitching a solution to obesity.
It gets better when she walks over and shows more of her product. The ingredients sent to the schools to teach the kids to cook. All processed, packaged, refined carb shit.
What the actual fuck?
All she wants to talk about is how much money she can make (no doubt to feed her KFC addiction). The worst part is they actually got a deal.
TL;DR - Gross butterball ham wants to make money off her bullshit solution to child obesity.

If buying products helped lose weight there would be no obesity. But desperate obeasts will buy any product, so just in terms of making profit it's (unfortunately) sensible.
