I navel-gaze because it's my blog and I can

I've been putting together some things in my head lately...

While we're talking about food label reform...

...can we have some more of these?

Not as a substitute for actual regulations that cut down on the amount of deception that can be smeared all over a Captain Krunch box, but in addition to them.

Maybe more people would be willing to buy and cook healthy food if they didn't have to go through the extra step to look up a recipe. For me, that's a lot of fun, but if you're wondering "do I want to take a chance on this strange new vegetable?" and you're still at the point where vegetables are new and kind of scary, I can see how a label like this would be very reassuring: it isn't any more complicated than nuking a frozen pizza! Well done, E. Miedema & Sons.

Psychology bonus points: it's very much a step in favor of "promote the good" rather than "demonize/fear the bad."
