How would you regulare excessive sugar? Have a weekly quota of sugar that can be contained in food you purchase? Are they going to ban growing fruits?

Taxes on sugar beets and standards for manufactured foodstuffs, I'd assume. Chopping down the apple tree in your front yard is clearly absurd (or is it? I'm not sure what's too absurd to happen anymore...), but saying that any loaf of bread with more than 20g of sugar must be labeled "cake" and taxed as such? That type of thing has already been happening for years.

Ration books. If they're from the 50s they'll probably understand.
