Should Access to Healthy Food be a Right for Everyone?

With a growing population, the U.S. has a shortage of jobs. Families are low on money and take whatever measures they need to support their family. One of the list toppers for a family's budget is food. Food is what you work for, food gives you energy, and food keeps you healthy if you eat the right kind. Yet, how can you eat right if eating right means going over budget? This is why obesity is so abundant. Families are forced to eat cheap and processed food instead of vegetables and fruit, which your body needs, because a head of broccoli costs more than three burgers off the dollar menu. In my opinion, all people should have the choice to buy and consume healthy foods.
Primarily, we need to give an option of healthy food for everyone because of obesity. A study shows that 1 out of 10 kids in the U.S. will have diabetes. It is increased to 1 out of 5 kids in minorities. There are thousands of fast food restaurants, everywhere you go. Part of obesity is ignorance and also temptation. When you're surrounded by fast food and sugar, some people can’t fight it. Sugar is addicting and it’s in everything unhealthy. It is a basically a drug, and people are eating it as if they were addicted to nicotine. Even schools are now feeding kids sugar-filled foods that are cheap, filling, and fattening.
I believe we should also cut down on the amount of restaurants in any town or city. If we were to instead just have a bunch of healthy restaurants that serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner and replace the old fast food ones with them, then I think the people of America would be a lot different. Many stores and restaurant are beginning to add more fruits and vegetables to their menus, but it is a very slow reform. When someone goes to Starbucks and there are a couple of bananas  on a shelf next to donuts and scones and other delicious yet sugary things, ¾ of Americans will most likely choose the fat and sugar-based product.
Some people might argue these products are affordable, filling, and tasty. But these are the people who don’t understand where it comes from, how its made, or what it does to your body. The products they believe to be cheap and good are animals being fed chemicals to make them fatter in, while living in small pens with limited walking space knee deep in their own crap. Then they are slaughtered carelessly and basically shoved on a conveyer belt and grinded. There are up a thousand of different cows in one burger at a fast food restaurant.
The fast food industries are taking food to a new, industrialized level that is fueling the population obesity in America. Healthy food should be available to all people. We need to see that we the people are being tricked into eating unhealthy and inhumane food processed in factories. Either we stand up to these companies now or we could end up eating these terrible foods forever.
