2020, American Journal of Preventive MedicineCitation Excerpt :Both marketing bans and junk food taxes usually involve a set of inclusion and exclusion criteria. For example, both Mexico and Hungary have implemented junk food taxes, with cutoffs for energy density (Mexico) and salt, sugar, and caffeine (for Hungary) used to determine what qualifies as junk food to be taxed.35–37 However, there is no consistent definition.

2015, Health PolicyCitation Excerpt :Legislative measures elsewhere include Denmark's short-lived “fat tax” [28] and Hungary's “public health product fee” [29]. In general, these have been reported mostly anecdotally [30,31], albeit generating considerable interest from international media [32–35]. Less headline-worthy, more incremental policy changes receive little attention, making it difficult for policy-makers in other jurisdictions to discern trends and assess potentially transferable measures.

2013, Food PolicyCitation Excerpt :Recently, some countries have adopted the approach of introducing new taxes on foods or beverages that are considered unhealthy. In France, a tax on sugared soft drinks was introduced in 2011 (Villanueva, 2011), in Hungary taxes on different ready-to-eat foods (candies, soft drinks, energy drinks, savoury snacks and seasonings) with specified nutritional characteristics were also introduced in 2011 (Villanueva, 2011; Holt, 2011), Finland has in 2011 reintroduced taxes on sweets, which had been abolished since 1999, and more countries are considering the use of tax instruments in health promotion policies (EPHA, 2012). In Denmark, a new tax on saturated fat in food products was introduced in October 2011, as a supplement to existing taxation on sugar, chocolate, candy, ice-cream and soft drinks.
