Every product pictured (whose label I can read) still exists (even the Suzy Qs, apparently), so it’s not as if people can’t make the same shitty junk food choices today.
True enough, and I was interrupted while making my comment so I couldn’t really specify; a ton of food additives were banned in the last 50 years, as well as a ton of other things (like the whole transfats thing). While I can’t speak for the exact items in the image without having to do a ton of research, even things as minor as food dyes were changed in a ton of recipes.
We still have a long way to go in what goes into our food (especially in how we raise livestock and stuff), but it’s still a higher bar than it used to be.
Hell, a better joke probably includes the cigarettes she’s buying. What year did we start taxing the crap out of it to detour people from smoking? Lol
Loaded with shit that’ll probably kill you a few years earlier.
