Professors—and ultraprocessed food experts—Ashley Gearhardt and Kelly Brownell join Mark and Kate to talk about why the robust new science about food and addiction is going to be hard to ignore, how junk food could take the path of cigarettes and opioids with regards to litigation (and how tobacco paved the way), and why marketing these foods to kids is so successful (and the many reasons why kids are so important to focus on).
