I think it leans a little too far toward making overweight people victims. Sure, there is now a metric fuckton more garbagey, sugary food in stores (than decades past), but basic concepts about nutrition are taught in early school years, so it's not like people don't understand that they're eating garbage. I do think they might be onto something when they discuss regulating food conglomerates, however this should not be a massive crack down. Calorie content is already required on food packaging, so it's not like people are ingesting mystery foods.

Fatties laugh about eating junk food, even calling it that too. But they can't close their fucking mouth long enough to actually think what JUNK FOOD could possibly mean. They just want to shove questionably edible things down their gullet. It's the tubs fault for going back to eating that in the first place, not the companies. They just know their is a gold mine in that business.

Precisely, if humanity woke up one day and (hypothetically) switched to healthier food, the market would react and provide said produce on mass and cheaper.

You can't fully blame the companies... if they weren't doing it, someone else would.

I recognize food addiction being a thing but it's no excuse. We don't tell meth heads they're beautiful and excuse them because meth is really addictive. Everyone talking about food addiction is acting like it's an excuse. You can't make fun of people because they're addicted. They're victims. It's maddening. The same obese people crying about being made fun of will pass these addictions and bad habits on to their children, and then will cry about the people judging their kids or their parenting. So it's a crippling addiction that you've given to your offspring, but other people are still the problem. Mom of the year shit right fucking there. You did real fucking good.
