Cheesy fascism!!

What a joke!! The government are thinking of limiting the amount of salt that goes into an old Stilton cheese recipe. Their justification being, that Stilton cheese contains more salt in it, than is the legal limit in the UK!! However, the makers of Stilton cheese argue, that the cheese will lose it's old taste and will lose certain flavours inherent in the taste that is Stilton!!
On the other hand, Roquefort cheese from France, has a much higher content than Stilton, but yet is still allowed to be sold on the shelves of our supermarkets, without any questioning.
Now call me thick or something but aren't we as individuals able to make our own informed choices about whether we eat salt drenched cheeses or not? According to the government plans, probably not!! Surely we CAN and do make our choices about the food we put into our mouths. Indeed, wouldn't it be better to look at the long term effects of 'e' numbers, rather than concentrating on a few too many grains of salt?
It makes me sick to realise that we are now living in ever increasing times of a prescriptive society. What we eat and drink, how we dress, our behaviour, our size, our rights as 'free' individuals are being taken slowly and quietly, away from us. Mr Blair is certainly one of the most right-wing Labour, cheesiest Prime Ministers to govern for quite some time!!
