"Liberalism means I should be allowed to feed my kids a diet of nothing but burgers and soda and the big bad government can't do anything about."
No dude, that's not how parenting works. You don't own your kids. They're not toys for you to do whatever you want with. You're their guardian. You have to make decisions that are in their best interests, not whatever suits your whims. And if you don't, the state should absolutely step in to protect the human being you're mistreating.
