After the Good For You Party seizes power, it imposes an authoritarian regime that bans all unhealthy foods and sugar. The bakery owned by Smudger Moore’s father suffers financially because it can no longer sell its popular sweet dishes. Smudger’s friend, Huntley Hunter, is equally upset by the prohibition, as he can no longer keep a promise he made to his late father. Angered by this unjust world, the two young boys decide to challenge the new social order. However, the uphill battle they face turns out to be far more difficult than they had imagined.
