In Vermont, the nutrition discussion
is heating up. The House is looking at a bill that would tax
"non-nutritional" foods, and the Senate has taken up a bill that
would require restaurants to publish nutritional information. VPR's Jane
Lindholm talks with UVM nutrition professor Rachel Johnson about how our
attitudes and understanding of nutrition are changing, and what incentives or
penalties could help us make wiser decisions.
