Food? Or processed "food"? Whatever, it's a campaign promise and desperation breeds fringe-y pronises. Yes, inflation has hit the supermarket. But - anecdotally - people (junk food) buying habits haven't changed. When soda is a "must have", in a culture plagued by preventable health issues, something is wrong. For a while, it seemed like the pandemic was going to be an enlightening moment for diet, exercise and personal health in the US. It never happened, and "leadership" seems happy to avoid having that tough conversation with voters. Meet the new disconnect, same as the old disconnect.
