  • Will that achieve anything?

    Yes! Various countries implement a “traffic light” style health meter that is legally required to be on the front of packaging that also gives a little subtext to say what causes it to be yellow or red (least healthy). So it will say stuff like “excess sodium” or “too much sugar” which actually does work. People don’t even realize that some staples are considered UPFs because of preservatives (Tortillas), or are otherwise unhealthy (too much sugar and preservatives in ‘health’ cereals and yogurts).

    This allows people to find staples that do not contain shocking amounts of sugar, preservatives, or highly processed options within the same category. It’s worked when implemented well :)














  • Same rules apply! Edge of the road is total death. People driving in the lane and people opening car doors cannot see you as well. Not to mention stuff like people walking to the car doors, people unloading stuff, etc. The edge of the road just gives you so much less time to react to bad situations.

    I’ve had people even throw their passenger door open in heavy traffic, where I almost flossed their door off, had I not swerved. And that was car to car!
