Abstract: Despite considerable evidence of harm from poor dietary choices, many Americans continue to make them. The reasons for our collective unhealthful diet are complex and probably vary considerably among individuals. For some Americans, poor diets may stem from a lack of access to better options [1]. For others, there may be a component of addiction-like behavior driving their intake [2]. Most of us would probably assert, though, that our diets reflect conscious choices about what we like to eat and what’s most convenient for us.
