minus-squareHobbitFoot @thelemmy.clublinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up34·7 days agoMexico has been trying a lot to reduce obesity through various product labeling. This looks like a step in that direction; a snack that uses an indigenous ingredient (chocolate) in a manner that complies with federal guidelines.

That’s STUPID! They should just Slap a TARIFF on it WITHOUT Investment or Alternatives and let their Citizens deal with the Price increase!
minus-squareclif@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·7 days agoI did notice that the Mexican coke that I occasionally buy as a treat (in the US) got new labels printed on the bottle instead of just a sticker.
