by whose definition is something healthy? heavy cream is fine for the atkins folks, but not for the low fat followers. many dieticians and diet programs, like WW, insist that there 'are no bad foods,' but they have to be eaten as part of a whole eating plan.
so, where does a weekly ice cream fit in? the 'experts' would have us believe that it is junk and therefore taxable, but other authorities would disagree.
remember this: liquor taxes are heavier on beer and whiskey than on wine, because wine is the alcohol of choice for the public health administrators.
