Yikes, how is that supposed to be uplifting? Sounds a whole lot like authoritarian overreach. Let people decide for themselves what they do and don't want to eat.

Yikes, imagine conflating corporate advertising with freedom.. Is this why companies hold so much power over us?

I expect you'd have a rather different stance if it was advertising for something you enjoy in life that was being singled out and banned.

It'd be very different if it was a blanket ban on all advertisement in these contexts, but it isn't. It's the government trying to decide what people eat.
