UK Labour targets Frosties and jelly babies!

The Telegraph reports:

High levels of fat, sugar and salt in children’s food would become illegal under a Labour government, the party’s manifesto will say. …

Under the new rules, a maximum limit would be set on levels of fat, salt and sugar in food marketed “substantially” to children.

Mr Burnham has previously considered a 30 per cent cap on sugar in cereals marketed at children. This would hit well-known brands including Kellogg’s Frosties, which have 37.0g of sugar per 100g and Coco Pops with 35g per 100g.

Next they’ll prosecute parents who buy unapproved foods.
