Brilliant piece – and I hadn't realised how strong the link was between tobacco companies and the addictiveness of UPF. Terrific news that people are fighting back.
Me neither, until I read the lawsuit. But looking at the business history, it’s like one of those things that seems to have been hiding in plain sight.

Loved the pun! Am curious about why there is no definition as yet of UPF. Maybe one will come from this case?
There is one – Nova 4, and despite what the industry would like the world to believe, it is very precise!
Thank you - it is v precise; I can see why the food processing industries don’t like it!

I totally agree with this comment! Best thing!
