Our Beef With Beef
from Public Health Group Chat · host Ariel, Olivia, and Mattie
The US government has been issuing nutrition guidance for over 100 years — so what's the deal with the new 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines? In this episode, Ariel breaks down the history of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, what's actually in the new 10-page document, and why it looks so different from previous editions. She and Mattie dig into the industry ties behind the people who wrote it, why ditching a health equity framework is a major red flag, and what it would actually take to improve nutrition at the population level. Spoiler: it's not beef tallow. Also on the agenda: Flavor Flav championing women's sports, F1 season kicks off, and a product recall segment that somehow ends with Viagra in chocolate syrup.RECALLS02/27/2026 - Savannah Bee Company, BBQ Sauce.Undeclared allergens, including wheat & soy. 02/27/2026 - RHINO CHOCO VIP 10x, Chocolate.
