How can parents teach their kids not to eat sugar if they're constantly eating sugar?
You might be right about regulations of sugar, but regulations shouldn't just target companies individually. They should figure out the actual problem and try and regulate that.
- the_af 2y agoAgreed on regulating the actual problem. But it seems the problem in practice is concentrated on a few big companies...
- robertlagrant 2y agoThat's also true for sugar. And sugar is massively subsidised. Brazil spends $2.5bn a year subsidising sugar[0], for example.

- the_af 2y agoAgreed about sugar! If you look at my initial comment, I find it "not unlikely" that some sort of regulation could be enacted against sugary foods in the future.
