Thank you kind Sir. You are a gentleman and a scholar.
I don't think the problem with healthy food is that it's out of reach of most people's budgets, it's likely that takes time to break out of bad habits. Junk food is too chemically perfect to be easily replaced, in some cases not having it can create withdrawal. Not too many people have the will or desire to cook and eat healthy food at all to begin with.
Note that Europe is quickly approaching obesity numbers the US has: child obesity in the US and in Europe are basically the same (and in both case extremely concerning).
Overweight or obesity: approx 3 out of every 4 adults in the US but already 50% to 60% of all adults in the EU (depending on the region).
I forgot the exact statistics but there's something like 90% of kids that are overweight shall stay overweight for life: so Europe is in trouble too.
