The article linked below talks about the big food companies being compared to tobacco companies and being held responsible for making us unhealthy. This is a US article.
I'm a bit 50/50 on the subject. Sure they make unhealthy food but bad food choices aren't the only problem. If you blame bad food you'd also have to blame Microsoft, Facebook and even electricity for making us inactive and fat. I do blame Microsoft and Facebook for making people inactive and fat, but in the end it's up to the people to make that choice. People know deep fried food is bad for your health and vegies are good. They know they spend way too much time on Facebook and joke about it.
