Drinking from a firehose

That's true too, but it sort of still is global economics and politics isn't it - a few huge companies sources everything as cheaply as possible and forcing it on consumers, convincing them they need this junk, feeding our addiction to anything sweet, salty and fatty. Half the world starves while half the world grow obese to keep a few big companies in profit!

I try to shop as fair trade and organic and local as possible, but it's hard on a fixed income and limited energy so, I too, eat far too much junk than I would like.
