Adbusters posted an interesting blog citing evidence that fast food restaurants within 1/4 mile of a school significantly increases the average obesity rate of kids at that school.

I do wonder if the fast food stores are as much a symptom of a “poor diet area” as a cause, in the same way that Payday Loans, Adult Superstore and Liquor Store clusters are an indicator of a low-income neighbourhood (and I’m sure they contribute to the problem).
