abstract
| - CCF has campaigned against positions held by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, and Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, the Center for Science in the Public Interest, Mothers Against Drunk Driving, and Oceana. It operates a number of websites, such as ActivistCash.com, CSPIscam.com, PhysicianScam.com, FishScam.com and PetaKillsAnimals.com. CCF has become outspoken in recent years about misleading statistics used by some nutrition activists to promote the notion of a global "obesity epidemic." In 2005, following a series of Freedom of Information Act requests from CCF, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was forced to publicly retract its claim that 400,000 Americans died each year as a consequence of being obese. The actual number was one-fifteenth the CDC's original estimate.
