[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Food boxes have evolved. There is a lot more emphasis on produce and recipe cards. This trend should continue to retrain palates. Processed food is unhealthy and could explain a lot of health disparities that develop over a lifetime of poor diet.[/quote] The government should also subsidize green vegetables. There have been studies done that show that item placement factors heavily in choice. If you have bottles of water next to the register at a grab-and-go restaurant, more people will consume water. If you have bottles of water in some random corner, and tubs of soda next to the register, people will choose soda. There's a lot of engineering that would help all of us make better choices.
