Martin Varsavsky writes about the Google v Microsoft battle – for better food in the office:

Now here’s a paradox. In a country in which obesity is on the rise and longevity fails to climb because of the ever more common side effects of excessive weight, is it wise to win the food fight? Isn’t the ultimate employee retention policy to keep employees healthy and productive for many years? Also, if people in America are beginning to sue restaurants over their obesity, what if they start suing their employers? I guess in Europe we don´t worry about that, we just starve people, especially in Spain where you don’t get to eat until 2pm.
