Hello everyone, how are you all doing today? 😊
Recently, vegan industrialist Dale Vince proposed placing tobacco-style health warnings on packets of bacon, highlighting the WHO’s classification of processed meats as a group one carcinogen (the same category as tobacco). Vince also suggested a “meat tax” and hiding meat products behind closed doors in supermarkets, similar to how cigarettes are displayed.
Some believe these measures could encourage healthier choices and reduce cancer risk, while others feel it’s an extreme step that infringes on personal choice. Would such warnings influence your decisions?
Do you think placing health warnings on bacon and other processed meats is the right way to promote health and sustainability? Or are there better approaches?
