You’re talking about processed food - anything that comes in a box, jar, or bottle.
Those products all have brand names and each one has a product manager who wants to grow sales so they add sugar, salt, and fat to manipulate you into craving more.
Healthy food is simple to understand - fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, nuts, grains, pulses, and meat.
That’s it.
It takes time to prepare and cook and the ingredients don’t stay fresh very long so you have to synchronise your shopping day by day.
Who does that? Hardly any couples with kids and a full work schedule, particularly those working three minimum wages jobs. They buy convenience foods in boxes and jars from the supermarket, or fast foods from a drive through.

- collaborative 5y agoSee the meals I added in the edit. They are very simple, almost require no daily shopping. The only thing they require is hours of cooking, so your point is very valid. It's not just about sugar. We need to learn to enjoy to be in the kitchen. I have been stirring this lentil soup base for the part 20 mins (1 hour to go). It will be tasty! And simple https://ibb.co/M5KVLTH https://ibb.co/M5KVLTH
