Confession: sometimes I feed my kids ultraprocessed foods. Why? It's simple: lack of time. If we're going get UPFs out of people's diets, we're going to have to address upstream factors that make it hard for families to afford the time and financial costs of healthy food.

this is an industry-cultivated line of attack that frames concern over UPF as a middle-class indulgence when in reality ultra-processing disproportionately harms the less affluent - it's disappointing to see the BBC fail to grasp the basic power dynamic at play here.

Are externalities just one-off market failures? Or are they features of corporate food systems? We propose that power and externalisation are mutually reinforcing in nature - by exploring three case studies in corporate-industrial meat supply chains. authors.elsevier.com/a/1jVwD9C%7EIu…

The UPF industry continues to manufacture doubt about the science supporting action, just like the fossil fuel and smoking industries have done 👇👇

Three key advocacy takeaways from my Healthy Food Systems Australia @hfsaus.bsky.social internship: 1) Build networks! Collectivisation is the key to achieving change 🤝 2) Have a personal mission statement and value-set to guide decision-making 💚 3) Try and fight FOR something more than you fight against something 💪

It's been amazing to have Sharon Friel join us this week. It's been a great reminder as to why I love working in systems so much. Systems really do open a new way of understanding the world in which we live, and how we can influence for a better tomorrow.
