They came to their “hugely alarming” conclusions after analysing the nutritional content of the 10 top-selling items bought at 19 of the UK’s biggest “out of home” outlets, including chains such as Subway, Pizza Express, McDonald’s, Greggs, Starbucks and Pret a Manger.
They only reviewed the 10 top-selling items at each chain. Headline could have read: “Breaking News: People Like Buying Comfort Food and Sugar”

How is this interesting? It’s obvious.
It’s clear to anyone paying attention, but in order to drive policy and help everyone (idiots) you kinda have to prove stuff

Oh, word?

Bullshit. It depends on what’s delicious, and hence, unhealthy.
