If one is a parent who works and has to collect three or four children from the child care provider or a sports event to bring them home, it is convenient to go to the fast food section of the shop to pick up a frozen pizza or meal. How can this mindset be changed? As Deputy Robert Troy mentioned, a sugar tax would act as a barrier. In saying one size does not fit all, how does one fit all the pieces to make it healthier for all of us to live and become sugar free in so far as we can, while allowing us the freedom to make our own choices? If I decide in the morning to buy ten Mars bars, that is my choice.
