From The Evening Standard:
Celebrity chefs including Nigella Lawson and Rick Stein are encouraging unhealthy eating, according to doctors and nutritionists. Their glossy cookbooks contain recipes loaded with "bad" saturated fats linked to heart disease, strokes and obesity.
A report unveiled today by The Fat Panel - an independent group of experts - shows that just one serving of some of their dishes contains more than the recommended daily limit of the fats.
Who's on The Fat Panel anyway? Experts like Chris Moyles, Beth Ditto, Nick Soames and Fern Britton perhaps? Nope. They do a nifty press release though; take a look at this one headed The Fat Panel Expands, which kicks off with "The Fat Panel is gaining even more weight..." (I shit ye not).
Not Sure This Is The Win You Think It Is, O2...

The Fat Panel.
Jeez.
Their web site is a little - how shall we say? - sparse. Nothing there about their sources of funding.
But all the "useful links" are to Qangos or Fake Charities, so I think we know what to think of their claim to be "independent", don't we?
The government equivalent of a SIV...
Thanks "CareforNature"... I've celebrated by driving the biggest SUV I could find for a few hundred miles before eating a huge meal and getting pissed.
Off Topic, but you may be interested to learn that Ford have gone in for a Debt-for-Equity swap.

WG, thanks, I did mention that recently, but it is time I did a full round up of all recent deleveraging/debt equity swaps etc.
Sorry, it took me a while to get past the "Nigella is chocolate" thingie. It's funny how the mind can become so transfixed by such a delightful idea.
As to these Fattie people: any organisation whose links list is almost 50% government departments or agencies (worse even than quangos) can't be independent by any stretch of the imagination.
"an independent group of experts" - doesn't your just sink whenever you read/hear those words?
