Eating too much ultraprocessed food can be bad for us, yet they can be so hard to resist because they’re hyper-palatable. Here are 5 things to know to cut back.
I’m not sure this makes sense. Just taking the headline at face value if 70 % of the food supply in the US accounts for less than 50% of the profit why not devote a greater % of the stores sf to those goods that generate profit? Or have profoundly smaller stores? Why don’t convience stores just sell fresh meat and veg if that’s where the money is? Why isn’t Dollar General cashing in on the highly lucrative fresh green bean and Salmon market?
Fuck the “baking” isle, where is the brussel sprout isle? Frozen foods? No thanks, take me to the shrimp quadrant.
The outer edges are literally the majority of their profit, your grocer loves you.

You can eat healthy, cheap, and good, but you only get to pick two most of the time. Avoiding ultra processed foods is worth it.
