Unfortunately, we live in a time when convenience is king. Processed food is really just “value added products”. Take low cost single ingredients, then process, package and brand them into a reformulated product that offers convenience to the consumer, but much more importantly, much higher profit margins for the producer. For a glaring example, look at the commodity cost of the inputs(corn, rice, sugar) of children’s sugary cereals, and then the end cost. By weight, these sugary cereals can reach an end cost of a fillet steak. The inputs can be so low cost, that the packaging of the box they are in exceeds them. After a lifetime of being poisoned by this processed “convenience food”, Pharma is more than happy to profit from keeping the victims alive just a bit longer in their misery….
