Does the combination of salts, sugars, and fats in processed foods make food addictive?
Well, according to this article, it does. This proposes an interesting issue. Is it morally justified to sell a potentially addictive substance to someone without their knowledge? This is similar to tobacco companies and to be blunt a drug dealer. LEARN what is in your food. Decide for yourself whether or not you want to eat something.
On the economic side of things, this is a heck of a way to make some dough if one takes advantage of the situation. Drug addicts will spend ridiculous amounts of money to get their fix. How is buying processed food to satisfy an addiction any different?

I vote that this guy is right! Jacob, this dough-making proposal is a supercilious one on your part. / _
