Well it takes some politics to get this kind of culture shift. As long as highly processed food is cheap and working class people are paid what they are paid, there is no chance of anything changing.

Additionnally, it is generally cheaper to eat at a fast food place than to actually cook at home. And since people don’t have time to go back home and cook something for lunch, they just eat at subway’s, domino’s or mc donald’s.

And since this has been going on for more than a generation, today’s grandparents don’t even know how to cook from raw ingredients anymore.

The US is sick, but change doesn’t start with food, it starts with fixing the economic inequality.
