Maybe I live in a bubble, but I don’t put stuff in my body unwillingly, so yes I control my diet.
It also isn’t rocket science, I know doughnuts have a shit ton of calories and vegetable shortening which will clkg your arteries, so I don’t eat doughnuts. I don’t have to look at the packaging.
Maybe the missing part is a proper education on nutrition in school, but we live in the age of the internet. All the information is there, you can get meal plans, you can figure out what foods are more likely to put you at risk.
Again, I don’t believe awareness is an issue. People know that chips and doughnuts are bad, but they eat them anyways because they are addicted to food which is engineered to be addictive.

The example I'm thinking of is cultures with near-religious obligations to listen to their parents. Like Italian-Americans all act like they'd die if they ever ate less than all of their grandmother's cooking or ever changed any of the traditional recipes. Even though the recipes were all invented in 1970 in NYC and have inhumanly large amounts of carbs.
