title: Food choice and the US dietary goals.
abstract: Nobody has a completely free choice of food, but we may be so used to the limits of our choice that we are not aware of them. The purpose of this paper is to review proposals which have been put to the US Government and which, if followed through, would change the boundaries of food choice. To begin with, therefore, the framework of food choice is briefly considered. The paper falls into three parts: a general discussion on food choice, a review of the US proposals, and a discussion of their implications.
