RFK Jr's vow to ban syrup sows concern among corn farmers in Trump heartland

I'm telling you, we need to nationalize the food supply system. It's the only way to ensure everyone eats correctly.
RFK can head up the whole thing. Custom diets based on each person's nutritional needs (informed by the interests of well-heeled lobbyists, of course).
 
Syrups have been being produced and made WAY before all these high fructose syrups were invented.

These companies will just have to go back to the old ways of making syrups, jams, jellies, and such.

RFK isn't looking to ban syrups and what nots.............he's looking to ban the BAD sugar products, BAD chemically created sweeteners, and TOXIC made corn sweeteners.

There's tons of other ways to make sweetened products without all these dangerous and toxic ingredients.

RFK just wants us back on REAL foods, not chemically created ones.
Thats the Ag Dept. RFK. Ain't doing shit.
 
What's to stop them ?
Nothing. I don't believe in authoritarian government. But let's not take your little detour into strawman land. We're talking about government telling us how to eat, not kids buying cigarettes.

It's been going on forever and a day, but it's just who you approve of in government that eases your mind on what enforcement or changes might be made. I can understand your fear, because after year's of Democrat's being in government your fears are real. Gaining back a government that we can trust is paramount, and if not then what you are doing might be a natural response to your fears that are born of the past.

It has nothing to do with who is calling the shots. We don't need government telling us how to eat.
I can understand your fear,
I think you understand very little about me.

Yes. Democrats have traditionally been far worse about nanny state government than Republicans. But Trumpsters aren't traditional Republicans. They're more than eager to join the statist Democrats in their zeal for telling people how to live.

“In the farms and fields of Darke and Shelby counties in western Ohio, Donald Trump enjoys near-unfettered support. In the 5 November election, more than 80% of voters here backed the president-elect – the highest rates of any counties in Ohio.

But western Ohio is also prime corn growing ground, and with Robert F Kennedy Jr Trump’s pick to head the Department of Health and Human Services, many here may find themselves struggling if Kennedy is allowed to reshape America’s food industry to his liking.

In sharp contrast to Trump’s first administration, when Department of Agriculture officials and appointees worked closely with agriculture interests, Kennedy has vowed to ban high fructose corn syrup and seed oils, a move that would significantly reduce demand for a host of crops.”


Yet another example of the stupidity of Trump voters.

Plenty of other uses for corn, we don't need to keep hurting people the way you want to.
 
They hypocrisy of this kind of shit is really hard to swallow. Nanny state Republicans are embarrassing themselves.
 
I don't care.

I don't know what that means.

We'll see, but putting your fears in check might help with your stress levels.

Question for those supporting a ban on corn syrup: How do you think we got into this situation in the first place? Why do we over-consume corn syrup? Anyone know?

Your sad desperation is sweet music to my ears.
