No One Wants to Say ‘Put Down That Burger,’ but We Should
- atlasunshrugged 4y agoFunny, I thought this was going to be an article about obesity and maybe how we should be taxing sugar, salt, fats, etc. to make them less appealing/affordable while promoting healthier foods.
- ZeroGravitas 4y agoThis has a strangely negative tone. Don't most governments advise the average person to eat less meat and less processed food already, for purely health reasons? What's the point in acting like that's politically impossible?
- JoeAltmaier 4y agoDidn't I see a post here about how the link between red meat and cancer diminishes with rigorous studies until it disappears entirely? Still fat and sugar are best limited. So still a good idea to substitute some (non-fatty) vegetables for some of those burgers.
- bell-cot 4y agoThe core problem: > Limiting access to cheeseburgers can turn politicians into ex-politicians, Though it certainly doesn't help that most of the activists pushing the "we gotta make big changes, or else the Earth is doomed" agenda seem far more interested in scoring points in the Culture Wars than they do in actual success.
