The new Smart Choices symbol was developed by the companies, scientists, health organizations and others over the past two years that wanted to come up with one standard to identify healthier foods, participants said.
Ok, so they can come up with and implement new labels to rate their processed food as supposedly healthy (heh, I may be challenging some of that!), but not COOL?! I think I need to walk my dog before I punch a wall out.
