Lobbies doing lobby things

The headline at least smears responsibility out over "America". It's pretty clear this is RFJ doing things by executive fiat. Why are news media fudging on assigning responsibility?

This doesn't address the entire point of the recommendation, that saturated fats like tallow and butter aren't inflammatory compared to PUFAs, and that red meat is filling and extremely nutritious. Limiting those things over heart disease risk is wrong, especially when most people will replace them with sugar and seed oils, which are extremely inflammatory and fattening.

This article contains a quote so stupid it's hard to read past it. The speaker suggests that we don't know what ultraprocessed foods are or why they might be harmful? Only someone on the dole from the processed food industry could say that.

People evolved over hundreds of thousands of years to eat animals who ate plants. It doesn't require a big scientific council or a food board to figure out we didn't evolve to eat highly processed foods.
