>Bad food is not more convenient. Don't speak for everyone. There are significant parts of the country where it is legitimately a hassle to put together a healthy meal. You're fighting situations like: * Inner-city and poor-neighbourhood grocers are well known for having lesser quality goods and higher prices. * That's assuming you can even get to one. The nearest full grocer might be several miles away, and the local transit system may not be optimized to get you to and from there. The only "food" store within reach may be basically a glorified kwik-e-mart that doesn't stock much, if any, fresh food. * Small apartments with limited kitchen and storage facilities If I wanted to make a healthy meal in that situation, I'm looking at having to spend quite a while getting to and from the store, paying more than someone in the suburbs would for the same items, buying something I can keep in my tiny fridge until I'm ready to cook it, selecting a recipe which can be made in the small hot-plate with my limited pots and pans... or I can just throw it in, walk to the fast food two doors down and buy an unhealthy dollar-menu burger/burrito/etc.
