War on Choice: UK Government Sets ‘Calorie Cap’ for Pizzas, Burgers... Even Soup
I have to wonder what the people (voters) think.
Shouldn't the marketplace decide about things like this?
If consumers don't want something, they don't buy it, and the market adjusts, or suffers financial consequences...
At Breitbart London, Virgiania Hale reported on this:
"Restaurants and supermarkets have been told to shrink pizzas or remove toppings under “drastic” new government plans to calorie cap thousands of foods sold in the UK. Draft guidelines unveiled by Public Health England (PHE) would see recommended calorie limits set for regularly consumed items including sandwiches, cooking sauces, pies, soups, and processed meats, the Daily Telegraph reports."
