It couldn't have been more fitting that I came across this article in Fast Company today, "How Food Prices Affect Your Weight," after recently posting commentary on how the government contradicts its "My Plate" recommendation with the current allocation of subsidies through the Farm Bill.
The article shares a few key figures that in effect claim that "increasing the prices of bad foods makes kids skinnier," suggesting that "a more effective solution might be finding ways to decrease the price of foods that are good for you." Thank you Fast Company (and author Morgan Clandaniel) for sharing that “perhaps dark, leafy greens could use some subsidies too!”
