It is all about choices- not a conspiracy by the fast food industry. There may be a lot of fat people in the US, but the rest of the world is catching up just as fast as they can. Modern food production affords them the opportunity. They make the choice and when it comes to recognizing the consequences of your actions humans are pretty stupid (health, environment, $$). Can't blame that on Monsanto

watch the movie. one point they interview a family. low income, daddy is a truck driver, diabetic truck driver. the point of this family was to illustrate that it is easier, cheaper, and more convienent to eat unhealthy. monsanto is part of the machine.
