Business Matters: The 'fat tax' debate

Wed1, 26 Mar2 14

Food expert Professor Marion Nestle discusses whether taxing food infringes4 our personal liberty and we find out why Denmark's 'fat tax' was axed after only one year. From New York, we are joined by Derek Yach, former senior vice5 president of Global Health and Agriculture Policy at Pepsi Co and from Singapore, David Kuo of the Motley Fool gives us the view from Asia.
