What's Wrong With our Food System - and why it needs to be FIXED (or at least, people need to be educated about its manipulations)

 This is a really good video. The Big Food industry keeps cranking out foods that are industrially produced foods that are designed to be irresistibly delicious. Foods like Doritos are ultra-processed. Many breakfast foods cause disease. This is why I no longer buy cereal. I can't eat just one bowl. It's like a serious addiction. If I buy a box of cereal I'll eat the whole box in a day or two, because it's hard for me not to eat 5 bowls in a row. 

I used to blame myself for not having enough willpower, and this is a huge reason why I developed a serious eating disorder for 11 years. But it was only when I switched to a whole food diet and started eating foods that were NOT addictive, that I realized, I was just one of the many victims of the Big Food industry that is manipulating people in ways we're not supposed to be manipulated.
