Bill Clinton: “Let me tell you what the Government does and can do. The Government can require the people who sell this food to publish…”

On the recordFebruary 20, 1993
Let me tell you what the Government does and can do. The Government can require the people who sell this food to publish on a fairly large sign like the cereals do now what the real nutritional content of the food is and how much stuff that's not so good for you is in it. But right now we don't have the authority to stop it from being advertised at all. Do you think there should be a law saying you can't even advertise junk food?
