Coke and PepsiCo Fight to Preserve Sugary Beverages in Food Stamp Programs

Reported 2 days ago

Coca-Cola and PepsiCo are lobbying against efforts to exclude sugary drinks from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which provides food assistance to low-income families. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., recently nominated to lead the Health and Human Services Department, aims to restrict the inclusion of sodas and processed foods in these programs. The beverage industry argues that consumers are increasingly choosing low-sugar options, and they advocate for funding programs that help families access healthier food rather than restricting their choices.
