According to Tanya Albert Henry, a contributing news writer for the American Medical Association, ‘The nation’s obesity rate is approaching 40 percent.’Clearly, the United States is suffering from a serious health problem.According to Michael Moss in his article in They Say/I Say ‘The Extraordinary Science of Addictive Junk Food,’The public and the food companies have known for decades now . . . that sugary, salty, fatty foods are not good for us in the quantities that we consume them. So why are the diabetes and obesity and hypertension numbers spiraling out of control? . . . What I found, over four years of research and reporting, was a conscious effort–taking place in labs and marketing meetings and grocery-store aisles–to get people hooked on foods that are convenient and inexpensive. (662).Write a research paper on the eating habits in America and the effect of those habits on American health. Michael Moss suggests that major food companies are actively working to get Americans ‘hooked on foods that are convenient and inexpensive’ though they are aware that these foods are not healthy. He blames them for the health problems that are ‘spiraling out of control’ such as diabetes, obesity, and hypertension.
