Kevin Hall's Crusade: Tax Junk Food, Save America, Eat Seaweed Pizza

Kevin Hall, the NIH diet detective who studied 'The Biggest Loser' metabolism drama and ultra-processed food chaos for 21 years, just dropped 'Food Intelligence' on September 23, 2024, co-written with Julia Belluz. He claims ultra-processed foods sneakily cram calories by drying stuff out because contamination is the ultimate villain. His spicy hot fix? Toss veggies into your shelf-stable marinara and shame soda, candy, and cookies with taxes—no freebies for junk! Also, cats outta the bag: US taxpayers fund predatory cereal ads kids munch between cartoons. Bonus ideation? Scottish 'healthy pizza' with seaweed and whole wheat. And yes, cigarette-style warnings for your Snickers might be next. Mr. Hall’s retirement tweet on June 15 accused NIH of ā€˜censorship,’ denied by HHS. It’s food wars, policy edition!
