The best part is the entire food industry is geared towards selling as much sugar and carbs as possible to produce as much dental decay as possible and as quickly as possible.

No, its geared to be as addictive and pleasurable as possible.

It just so happens that both carbs and sugar are pleasurable, and by coincidence also the cheapest part.

It is designed to be addictive. This is accomplished by gearing it for simple carbs.

Gearing is a configuration thing.
