Is the U.S. food system broken because of corruption—or because of the laws we chose to pass?⁠
⁠
Dr. Jessica Knurick explains how today’s ultra-processed food environment didn’t happen by accident:⁠
⁠
📊 70% of our food supply is now ultra-processed⁠
📆 Key policy shifts in the ’70s and ’80s enabled the rise of packaged, industrial food⁠
⚖️ What many call “corruption” is often legal policy—created and upheld over decades⁠
⁠
It’s not just bad actors—it’s a system we built (and still support).⁠
