More details

Unreasonable costs of fresh fruit and vegetables is forcing those on lower incomes to cheap calorie dense foods offered in supermarkets and fast food chains
I would like to ask the government consider the following
* Limit the amount of fast food restaurants based on local population size
*Apply Health Risk tax to foods that are high in sugar, salt or saturated fats
*Require that all packaged food items list the caloric content of the entire product as sold and not the assumed "serving size"
*All tax collected by the Health Risk tax should be given to UK farmers to encourage the agricultural sector
*Require that all food establishments’ fast or otherwise ensure that at least 30% of their menu is vegetarian
*Drastically reduce the amount of advertising of fast food allowed on children's television channels.
