The public first must learn what nutrition is, and they are not going to "get it" through the popular press. They need to understand concepts like caloric density, nutrition density, BMR, and diet design, nutritional requirement of the human body. It is difficult to learn from marketing grade misinformation.
There is a lot to know before we, the lay persons, can make informed decisions about food, and have the confidence to say that most of the public have a deluded concept of what is healthy food.
The government has failed badly at getting the correct information to the public. What is need is a Real Food Guide, where manufactured eatable products are not considered food.
