Question:
Early in the chapter, it was suggested that there is a market failure if ice cream consumers are not aware of the high fat content of ice cream. Suppose that the government requires all ice cream producers to label the fat content of their ice cream and a stern warning that high-fat diets can lead to heart disease. Some people would ignore the warnings and continue to consume mass quantities of both Ben and Jerry’s Cherry Garcia and Häagen- Dazs’s macadamia nut ice cream on a regular basis. Does this mean that the labeling did not eliminate the market failure? Why or why not?
