Interesting as just an example of 'politics in action'. A state practicing democracy more than most, California, has the legislature interested banning ultra-processed foods for students.
Seems like a great idea. They're having dozens of groups/industry groups oppose them. They listen, they make compromises. Some of the opposition is coming from ethnic organizations about foods they don't want banned.
Not so hard in Republicans states. 'Donor businesses say don't ban them? Then don't'. Gifted article:
