For decades, Big Food has been marketing products to people who can’t stop eating, and now, suddenly, they can.

...

By one market-research firm’s estimate, food-and-drink innovation in 2024 reached an all-time nadir, with fewer new products coming to market than ever before.

There's something quite disturbing about how "making something even more addictive" is called as innovation.
