Would it not work if we just taxed unhealthy ingredients in foods? Then consumers and producers would both have incentives to eat healthier.

Some brilliant left wing logic. How about finding ways to make healthy foods cheaper?

Unhealthy foods tend to be cheaper and taxing them further hurts the poor.

Your suggestion of making healthy food cheaper is no less leftwing, it's just a different form of market manipulation.

Of course in the USA the left_posing_as_right farm subsidies distort the food market. But that isn't a problem here as we have no agricultural subsidies, not import tariffs.
