I think my take all along has been that it's going to have to come down to trustable (and standardized?) labeling so people can make good choices without having to do a ton of homework. <br /><br />Also, I used to care a lot less about this stuff when I was younger (and poorer), but as I have more money I am far more likely to pay a little more for something local and/or better. The point here is that I do think psychologically this is a middle-class game (for example, how many poor people shop at Whole Foods, which has a serious reputation for being pricey). <br /><br />Btw, how backwards is it that McDonald's is on a short list of companies doing [some of] the right things? ... though you're right, companies with more money can adopt these changes easily (and then recoup the cost through marketing). <br /><br />And! I hate cereal for that same reason. I remember the day I realized their reliance on milk for a pretty big chunk of nutrition, and then the additional realization that the cereal itself was basically a vitamin sugar pill. gergelykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06286612284736249290noreply@blogger.com
