JUNK FOOD

To the Editor

I was horrified to see your front page photo of junk candy sold at our New Dollar General. Our community deserves better options to healthy affordable foods not just cheap sugar. Obesity rates for children and teenagers have reached record highs. What do WA DOH and HHS have to say about the nutritional and health value of these products?

Sincerely,

Susan Hosticka
