1ST DAY
Denmark has introduced a world's first tax. It a fat food tax. What exactly is this tax all about? That's exatly what Demark's citizens may have wondered. The whole purpose of the tax is to curb and limit the population's intake of fatty footds. The tax will be added to foods such as butter, milk, cheese, meats, oil and processed foods. As the news of taxing grew, so did trips to buying up the goods before the tax was in place. Since this tax is the first of kind it the world, other nations are in composition to considering opting to having a similar tax set in place. Most scientists think sautrated fats may be the wrong target feeling that salt and and sugars and refined carbohydrates are more detrimental to health. Other countries may keep an taxable lookout to see if makes a difference, most people will still buy fatty foods and who knows they may want to buy it even more.
Do you think that fat taxing may start a new world way to control your eating habits?
I say everything in moderation..
