Its our lifestyle expectations and economic situations that drive people to eat unhealthy.
sad but true for a lot of western society.

on the bright side, with the economic crash and higher unemployment, many people are now at home rather than at work and eating out is too expensive, so with a bit of luck they'll be at home cooking real food instead of filling the kids up with ha[[y meals and other addictive junk foods and the next generation will be healthier.
