We would be leaner without fat study

On Dec. 29, the Snohomish Health District released a new obesity study that identifies the “fattest” ZIP code in Snohomish County. I am sure this study cost thousands of dollars and with health-care costs skyrocketing, how can we justify such a study? I think all forms of government need to be prudent in spending taxpayers’ money.
