I thank all the witnesses for presenting a challenging opportunity to us. The issue of sugar-free food and a reduction in carbohydrates is one we must examine and deal with. It is important that in the course of our debate we arrive at a policy that will allow us to tell a generation that it can live healthier and longer and need not be as dependent on fast food as is the case now.
