A big part is that the processed foods of America make us have drug like cravings for things we consume too much of, salt, fat, sugar, etc. Get em hooked, it's good for profit.
And we're dependant on them much of the time because of our subsist to work lifestyle.
It's expensive for it to be easy to eat well in America. While the owners order postmate's cobb salads, have household staff, and eat out with abandon, in addition to being on their own time, eating healthy while poor involves dodging endless temptation to eat fastcrap instead while prepping and cooking and cleaning meal kits before and/or after work, lengthening the time off work devoted to work. Many tonedeaf say "it's important so do it or you're just irresponsible," but when time is a commodity of survival for the poor, taking care of your health is often the first priority to be sold off.
And let's be honest, with that highly prevalent, encouraged lifestyle in America, how hard are you going to want to maximize your longevity to keep doing it? We're livestock for wealthy sociopaths and our reward for the daily profit maze is ubiquitous delicious poison. What a great fucking place.
