And yes foods have become the enemy but not through each consumers

Yet they all cost more more. In the past and even now they are LUXURY
items--not meant for the lower class who can't afford it. We can't
vote with our wallets and control the manufacturing chain the way the
capitalistic-free market is supposed to work. That's why inferior
products usually become the norm instead of the best.

Quality of food has little to do with the obesity epidemic in the USA.
