RFK Jr Says Tobacco Firms Engineered America's Obesity Crisis | Firstpost America

America’s obesity crisis may not be a failure of self-control, but a product of design. US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. claims ultra-processed foods were deliberately engineered to be addictive, using the same science once perfected by Big Tobacco. As cigarette regulations tightened, tobacco giants allegedly pivoted to food, acquiring major brands and applying addiction-driven strategies to eating. Today, ultra-processed foods dominate diets, fuel compulsive consumption, and are linked to serious health risks. If true, the obesity epidemic is not accidental, it’s the outcome of a powerful business model built on craving, not nutrition.
