It's not what you think. Those crazy brits are considering a tax on salty, sugary and fatty foods. It's the same idea as taxing cigarettes and alcohol - if it's more expensive, maybe people will buy, and therefore eat, less of the stuff. The researchers at Oxford who published the study estimate that such a tax could save about 3,200 lives per year. Cakes, pastries, cheese and butter are targeted. Taxed or not, I love my cheese and butter!
