In the United States, San Francisco's City Attorney is suing 10 major food manufacturers over what's known as Ultra-processed Foods, or UFPs.
In the lawsuit, which is the first of its kind, City Attorney David Chiu is arguing that local governments have been shouldering the cost of treating diseases like diabetes and obesity which are caused by those foods.
David Chiu talks to Mihingarangi about what this could mean if they are successful.
