    Obviously people and especially kids should be eating as healthy as possible

    But making high calorie food more expensive when there’s cost of living and child poverty crises is not the way to go

        Headline alone does beg the question though.

        I do like the BBC and will click the link, though I admit to skimming and missing the first line. (Also not the person you replied to.) I just hate how it redirects .co.uk to .com based on my physical location. This is a UK thing but redirecting me to the US version of the site makes it seem like it’s not a UK thing, silly as that may be. The article is mirrored, just let people read it on the .co.uk, since they had to load that page initially anyway.
