Unfortunately they were implying that that’s outside people’s control, like lead exposure or something, which is why they got the response they did. For the moment, anyway, it’s possible to eat good-ish if you educate yourself andfamiliarize yourself with your local area’s businesses. Even even there is nothing but a walmart, you can still buy veggies. If they don’t have veggies, you can buy nuts and beans. Going to McDonalds is a choice. Eating frozen dinners with family sized bags of chips for dessert is something people do because of lack of education or exhaustion, both problems with our society, but if you are the person in question then, you, personally can choose to eat healthy. It just won’t be as appealing.

Of course it’s “possible;” anything is “possible.” What matters is, why is it apparently harder to do in the US than in other places?
Something is different on the societal level that changes the average outcomes. Disregarding that because you’re bent on blaming individuals for perceived moral failings is missing the point.
No, it points to people eating processed food and other shit. Guess what, you can still be healthy if you eat healthy.
So then the question becomes, why is processed food and other shit so pervasive in the average American diet? That’s what an environmental factor is.
Refusing to think about the problem in terms of systems because you’ve got a hard-on for blaming individuals is absolutely missing the point.
Eating health is a responsibility of an individual.
Trying to blame the omnious evil system instead of the responsibility of each individual is absolutely missing the point.
That’s the cause I think they were referring to.
