the food specifically - I'd pretty much eat anything back then - but the

capitalism all food tends to fat, sugar and salt".
these are the taste experiences we crave and enjoy (salt is a bit different
- its very bitter by itself, but has massive positive impacts on our
appreciation of *other* flavor). coca cola and mcdonalds, for all the utter
crap that they peddle, have created products that manage to appeal to these
cravings. I agree. Of course, you cannot make total crap a
success, no matter
how much money you spend on marketing, but once you are beyond total
crap, marketing is key!
Yeah, I sort of agree, depending on the product, but how do you explain
the success of Coca Cola and McDonalds. I reckon they are only
successful *BECAUSE* of the marketing.
