Like hell it is. Even if the pound does slump, that will make
exports much more successful

The UK imports 40% of its food.

But not from the cheapest places it is currently available from
because it is in the EU and has to pay duty etc on
food that isn't imported from the EU currently when the
EU can supply that.
I'm sure people on fixed incomes, pensioners, people on benefits etc.
are licking their lips in anticipation.

Most only spend a minor part of their total income on food now.
They can't shovel as much of the more expensive food into
their mouths anymore ? That should do something about the obesity
epidemic when they have to eat cheaper food instead.
Hardly the end of civilisation as we know it for the short time that
the pound did slump as Britain left the EU even if that does happen
until the eurozone implodes completely and the pound ends up doing
much better because Britain isnt involved in bailing out the eurozone
as it implodes spectacularly.

I hate doing this but for once I agree with Rod.
No. Its cheap food that causes obesity.

Starch makes you fat.

More calories into your mouth than you burn is what makes you fat.
Starch by giving you sugar highs and lows, encourages you to put moire
calories in your mouth
