I agree with you, actually. There’s no way to prove it, per se, but then there wasn’t a great way to prove it in cigarettes for a long time, either. The manufacturers are certainly aware of the science of some of their foods, and many contain ingredients that break or manipulate the ghrelin-leptin cycle, thereby encouraging hunger. I can’t believe that’s totally by accident.

I’ve often wondered if the additives in food that make us crave more have been put there on purpose? (Maybe I’m a conspiracy-theory nut case, but sometimes I think the manufacturers of these packaged “foods” are purposely trying to get their customers hooked for good.) What do you think?
