How Big Food Tricks Moms: Former General Mills Insider Speaks Out | Lovebird Cereal's Parker Brook
"There was actually a secret meeting in 1999 between the top 11 food executives at the time about obesity and how ultra ultrarocessed foods was causing obesity. And it was one executive, I believe his name was Harvey Mud from Craft Foods, who's who essentially was a whistleblower. Uh they ignored it and kept making this junk food."
Brooke alleges that senior executives from major food companies held a closed-door meeting in 1999 to discuss obesity and the role of ultra-processed foods, and that participants then continued business as usual. He identifies an alleged whistleblower as “Harvey Mud” from “Craft Foods”, but provides no documentation on-air.
