Petition Tax Saturated Fats in Foods

More details

I propose that the government impose a tax on Saturated Fat content in food above a realistic % limit. The proceeds of which should be put into the health budget. This could mean...
- Fattier foods are more expensive than healthier foods
-Food companies will have to research ways to reduce their SatFat content.
-Health service would have more money to combat diseases that fat causes.
