Many manufactured food and drink products contain high levels of sugar, which causes many health problems. Sugary products should be made more expensive to encourage people to consume less sugar.

Do you agree or disagree?

The public is considering making sweet food costs higher to prevent people from consuming them too much hence avoiding the liability of health problems. In my opinion, highly-cost products will not change eating habits nor enhance society's health standards. There are two reasons for that.

First and foremost, if people are into sugary food, they will buy it no matter how expensive it is. Many kinds of chocolate and soft drink displayed in supermarkets are not affordable but still be sold out swiftly. People with steady income do not mind rewarding themselves with their favorite snacks after long working weeks. More than that, increasing the price of some food may turn out to be another way to stimulate consumption in modern society. Expensive manufactured food may lead to the misunderstanding that they are of high quality and worth spending.

Second, sugar is found in a wide range of food, including rice, wheat, and bread. Changing the price of those products may affect the economy negatively. For instant, in Asia, rice is the main dish in every family meal. If they are sold to the consumer at a high cost, many families under the poverty line will not be able to afford their meals. Moreover, escalating the price of that food will result in unexpected changes in the amount of imports and exports of the country. Making higher cost of products, in some cases, may not encourage people to maintain their health but bring along some downsides to the economy.

In conclusion, increasing the prices of sweet food is not an effective way to control the sugar intake of people in society. High-priced products may also result in negative effects such as triggering higher demand for sweets or causing the food market to go up and down.
