"Why Making Healthful Foods Cheaper Isn't Enough" - NPR

What do we know in NC about trend lines in the sale of processed foods, or other foods that generally are not so good for us, compared to the sale of organic items and those that are generally good for us? What is the trend line for those two categories if we were to divide up total food consumed on an average day in NC - and then imagine another day, say, 10 years ago? In other words, take 100% of the food we consume on a day in NC, and then divide it into generally good food and generally bad food. What is that split? 50/50? And then how has that split - and perhaps including the overall total amount - changed over 10 years or more?

What do we know, collectively, about the food served and available at schools in NC?
