Comments identifying domestic enemies. BUMP!
A great suggestion.
quotes:
an update to Mexico’s 2014 front-of-pack nutrition labels (FOPNL), and part of a wave of Latin American countries—starting with Chile in 2012—that are implementing laws to curb obesity.
“Eighty percent of my patients have health problems related to junk food,” Rito said. “Our region is very different from central and southern Mexico where they eat more vegetables and fruit.”
“In Mexico, there are high rates of arthritis problems,” Guadiana said. “Eighty percent of my patients have [arthritic] conditions related to obesity.”
70 percent of the kids he[another doctor] sees have insulin resistance.
There is ample evidence of a decline in the purchase of unhealthy products following the implementation of the black octagon warning labels
“I think these Latin American countries have done an excellent job, because despite having limited resources, they are producing much more effective policies there than here in the United States”

LOL — the advertising panel beside the article at the NYPost is full of anti-tariff scare mongering about rising food costs. Advertisers inject their topics via keywords, hooking this propaganda onto a story about MAHA. It would appear that when an online news source signs on to an advertising package, they have to take what they get, like cable tv packages containing smut along with the sports and children’s shows.
Tariffs may make some prices rise in many sectors of the economy until more and more small local farming and manufacturing returns to U.S. soil and overzealous regulation is curbed. With the advent of microeconomic delivery systems like DoorDash, UberEats, etc, consumers’ and grocery chains’ over-reliance on prepared or frozen food full of additives instead of fresh food can be reduced.
Neighbors recently had work done on their house by some (legal) immigrants. When the homeowners offered the workers a selection of snacks and bottled drinks, they were surprised and impressed that the Mexican workers always chose healthy things like aloe water or coconut water instead of sodas, and cherry tomatoes or grapes instead of potato chips.
RFK is a typical Kennedy. That closet of his is filled to bursting with skeletons. But like Trump, the instrument may be imperfect but both are doing God's work.
when people visit Italy they RAVE about the food, because it's generally all natural. As you say, unlike here in America.
