Education! Real, honest education to school age kids. Prohibition just creates a more dangerous black market, and lying (by hyperbole) about drug effects makes kids not believe the warnings which is just as bad (see: US’s failed D.A.R.E. Program in the 90s where they said marijuana is as bad as heroin)
this paragraph is from Lion of Jordan, the bio of king Hussein. Hussein was secretly meeting with israelis to negotiate giving away Palestinian lands in order to get a peace deal - without consulting the PLO.

I try and give the general population a little more credit on these food issues - it appears to me that the main factor is time. People do not have enough time and energy to prepare every meal from whole fruits/veggies/whatever. Certainly laziness/lack of food education is an issue, but working eight hours plus an hour commute each way (like in the DC region) knocks out ten hours of your day already. Now adding on top of that the time it takes to think of a meal idea, purchase the goods, and prepare them, and this becomes an exhausting affair - one that never ends! And three meals a day? People need more free time to take care of themselves.
