Thoughts on Chips

There was a Lay's Potato chip truck outside my apartment this morning and on the front of the truck it says "Food for the fun of it." This brand message struck me as a little odd since a majority of our country is morbidly obese. Shouldn't the chip company come up with something with a little more continuity based on the current health issues plaguing the country?
I guess they are positioning their chip product as "relief" from the real world of fruits, vegetables and whole grains. So, why not just make the slogan more direct and say something like, "take a break, eat like sh*t."
