“An increasing number of low incomes Americans have become hooked on processed foods with a high sugar content, and in particular soft drinks containing high fructose corn syrup.”

Here, the author is explaining how low-income families have become addicted to high processed food. Due to the fact that they are unable to access healthier food, they have turned to the unhealthy food choices that are available to them. In result this may cause an addiction to making unhealthy eating habits.

In response to this quote made by the author I in fact agree with this analyzation because it is in fact true, have you every visit a supermarket within a low-income neighbor? there’s about 10% of vegetables and 90% of sugary processed food. I believe that due to this disadvantage that low-income families are faced with they have no choice but to feed their families the unhealthy food. Also, the cost of unhealthy food is severely cheap. Due to the fact that low- income families are not bringing in enough money financially this may also lead to them making unhealthy choices for themselves and their families.
