Thanks for posting that. Honestly I would almost guess the article was compiled by AI, as it seems to assume you know information it has not previously mentioned.
If you notice it mentions the symbol multiple times but never shows it. (Not a symbol it can type) Where as a human would have written/drawn/ known it has to be shown or none of the references make sense.
Or I'm an idiot and they just are saying the term "healthy" is the symbol they are going to use?
I read in another article that the “healthy” symbol is currently under development.
Is it an actual symbol or just the word?
No, it’s gonna be some kind of logo that can be used on labels. Like I said, it’s under development currently. What it will look like, nobody is quite sure, in the article. I read mentioned that some critics believe it will oversimplify the matter of buying healthy food, and that it should be more like a label That has some kind of explanation.
Thanks I was an ass just now elsewhere in the comments so I appreciate you being sound. I am not always lol
My understanding is it will be a symbol, kind of like the USDA Organic symbol. Not necessarily similar in design, but just that the organic symbol means it’s met USDA criteria for being organic
Okay so I'm not crazy thinking they left a very important part of the message out. To me it should have said: FDA Developing a new symbol that will frame the market for they believe is New Healthy
