Episode 67: The Connection Between Big Food Corporations and Rising Obesity Rates

from The Bitter Truth About Food Podcast · host Brad Young

In this episode, we are going to walk through five interconnected stories — about marketing, processing, labeling, lobbying, and psychology — that together form a portrait of an industry that has prioritized profit over public health for decades. None of what follows requires you to hate any individual company or executive. What it requires is that you look at the evidence plainly and ask yourself why no one told you this sooner.
