I very strongly feel that government must place the high tax on junk food and fatty snacks. In this essay, I shall elaborate my viewpoint.
It is well known that junk food and fatty snacks are not good for human health. Those foods in short-term cause problems as bloating of stomach and many more. In the longer run, Fatty snacks give rise to high cholesterol, abnormal weight gain, and obesity. High Cholesterol, Obesity, and Heavy body weight result in heart problems and heart failures. Those foods are very popular among students and the younger generation. For young parents with their kids, eating those foods in the food stands and fast food stalls has become a fashion and a status symbol. In this fast age of computerization, people don’t prefer to make food at home but consume junk food popularly called Fast Food.
Identically, junk food and fatty snacks must also be heavily taxed so that the affordability of these foods becomes difficult resulting in lower consumption. This will be largely in the interest of the good health of the population at large.
In summary, Government must highly tax these foods in the interest of the good health of the population. It would not be out of place to mention here that “Healthy population builds a healthy nation”
