The U.S. diet is deadly. Here are 7 ideas to get Americans eating healthier
www.npr.org
The way many Americans eat is fueling chronic disease. Here are seven big ideas from the White House's upcoming nutrition conference for how to improve Americans' diets.
  1. Treat food as medicine

Can't wait to pay $1800 for an orange.

  1. Focus on quality of calories, not just quantity

They're just gonna fuck up SNAP so everyone can only buy Prime Fresh™ Veggie Straws, DANNON™ Greek Yogurt, and Planters™ nuts

  1. Expand access to dietary and lifestyle counseling

Congratulations, citizen. Your yearly doctor's appointment is now a Zoom meeting with a diet counselor.

  1. Support food entrepreneurs

Bruh.

  1. Increase the number of new farmers growing healthy foods using regenerative farming techniques

Galaxy brain, rotating the subsidies on a yearly basis, so every year the only vegetables grown are Corn, Rice, Soybeans, and Wheat. Barely functioning nutrient cycling.

  1. Make school meals free for all students

:shrek-troll: Like that's ever gonna happen. What a load of *flush*

  1. Establish a federal 'food czar'

Clearly we need more government czars to promote synergy.

    This would be cool news if the US wasn’t ontologically evil and physically incapable of doing good things. Who knows, maybe americas branch of the slow food movement has been housebroken and recuperated enough they’ll play footsie with some of the concepts. Or maybe this is the PR for a huge set of farmer buyouts so America can avoid the petty boug farmer unrest happening in Europe :shrug-outta-hecks:
