Tin Foil Hat time: So what the gov/corps wants to do is make those people who cook their own food become sick/distrustful of safe food so they buy the heavily processed premade products from the tobbacco…I mean FOOD companies filled with all their artificial ingredients that hook you into a junk food addiction downward spiral.
…now that I say (write) that out loud (virtually) it doesn’t sound that far fetched
They’re not, highly processed foods are made with 'addictive chemical’s. This is what the tobacco companies saw in the food market and why the bought up all the food processing companies.
So if real food is bad you’re going to get the ‘safer’ product.
Americans have a weird idea that fast food isn’t just mostly the same ingredients you see in a store + sugar and preservatives and that by cooking you somehow elevate the ingredients to a higher quality.
There is research showing that processed foods are worse for you, even if the exact mechanism isn’t clear. Plus there are more opportunities for various contamination, a lot of the recalls you see for dangerous pathogens seem to be premade food products. Although yeah, fast food would also have that problem.
Almost all foods are processed and most are some degree of premade. You better hope so too, because “processing” gets rid of like the insanely high risk of contamination that food has in nature. Eating meat of a deer carrying some virus or bacteria or simply being poisoned by fungi affecting some plant was how non-agricultural humans died a lot, and it’s only once we started processing everything, like e.g. ultra heat-treated & pasteurized milk that food quality improved.

Wait why would premade foods be better than making your own
