Food Deserts?

The existence of food deserts, and their connection to urban obesity is part of the social-science/food activism canon, and yet some new research calls this consensus into question.  Apparently, previous research has not clearly established the story food activists (and politicians) have been telling.

That said, I have not examined the quality of these new studies, or of the old ones.
