Sinopse

Many of us share great memories of eating ice cream in the park, one of the greatpleasures of summer. But we’ll have no more of that in Boulder, Colorado. Thecity has now banned ice cream as an option for vendors in all the local parks.That’s because the ice cream bars that were being sold come in larger sizes, andhave higher sugar and fat content, than is allowed under the City’s latest nutritionguidelines. Those rules apply to all ice cream, but also to nuts, chips, packagedfruits, cereal, cookies, pudding, and all other snacks. Should city governments evenhave rules for such things, or should we all look through the lens of liberty, andinsist that such regulations be withdrawn? We can decide for ourselves when andwhere we want to enjoy ice cream.
