as a US citizen, I suspect that an advisory panel that is half composed of very large agribusiness lobbying people, is not considered wrong by the architects and implementors of that advisory panel. I have no specific knowledge of this group or their history, but I claim that US governance does emphasize business, instead of say religion or tribal groups.
Now, personally I have seen the horror show of processed foods, food in public schools, aspartame and other artificial sweeteners like corn syrup, making whole food that spoils into processed food that can sit on the shelf of a store at a gas station for months. And the health results that go with it, largely called 'obesity epidemic' but lots more than that. Controversially I will add GMO foods, which many here actively support.
The only government that is better than the one we have is one with new blood and new activity. This is not easy or quick. I am grateful for this report, and urge anyone with standing and reputation to find a way to participate in this issue. I feel we have gone very, very far in dark directions and the "markets" are not fixing it.
