Registers update automatically when prices change, but shelf labels require manual replacement, and workers often lack the time.

Ultraprocessed foods meet all the current standards for safe food.
that shows we need better standards!
True but until the standards are updated, they are what they are. You should have no right to sue for past actions because new regulations are needed. Create the new regulations.
not being able to sue for a substandard product? this doesn't make any sense
besides, suing is one way to get better standards
I am not suing. San Francisco is. Even if I was, I ate the stuff of my own free will, knowing that it was probably not the healthiest choice. (In fact, I try to avoid them as much as possible, although in the US it is very difficult, unless you cook everything yourself from scratch.)
just because you know that doesn't mean everyone does
yes it's difficult (we need better standards!) but cooking at home makes it easier

don't forget the higher cost of fuel needed to travel the same distance
if we assume a 15 gallon capacity, then a 50mpg fuel standard means you would be able to travel 750 miles on a full tank. but a 35 fuel standard means you would be able to travel only 525 miles on a full tank. so you would have to buy gas to travel 225 more miles. that's about an extra 6.5 gallons of gas. assuming a $3/gallon price that's an extra $20.
so, not only we screw the environment, but we also need to buy more gas from shell, bp and exxon
make oil great again...
