Segregation and redlining have led to people of color living in marginalized communities in "food deserts" where there are few to no fresh food options, so people that live there (who are too money-poor or time-poor to travel for groceries) have to rely on processed and shelf stable food, leading to a very poor diet and the health problems associated with it.
Just because the immediate observation isn't related to racism doesn't mean the root problem isn't racism.
