Many reasons why the marketing is like this:
* The public is confused with low calorie vs healthy
* The public hasn't caught on to cheap sources of healthy calories (ie, healthy fats and whole grains) [1]
* The other types of healthy calories cost more
* This enables businesses to charge more for smaller portions!
Hilarious example: There are tons of fake healthy 'wheat' breads. Multigrain, Farmers, Rustic, Subway wheat. None of them are anywhere near whole grain. These fake-healthy foods have been tricking people for years.
