The Expert answers:

One must be able to discern the propaganda from the reality. There is a lot of deception being taught in public schools, and propagandized on TV. Price, ingredients, marketting, time, all influenece buying patterns.

In the marketplace, cost has a big influence, but so too the advertising behind it. Companies want to put out products that people will buy that have the greatest profit margin. One way to do that is cheapen your product’s ingredients. What can you get away with is the mantra of many companies.

Too many people operate under the assumptions if it sits on the grocery shelf that it is safe- not true. People also assume an FDA stamp means it is safe- not true. Aspartame/Nutrasweet are just one example where political decisions were the deciding factor in it’s approval- go look up on youtube http://www.youtube.com “Sweet Misery” which covers some of the politics behind that approval, and the book “Seeds of Deception” covers how politics and legal parsing got approval for GMO corn to be accepted for production of filler and High Fructose Corn Syrup in your food supply without adequate honesty of their testing methods or the results. Not to mention you have drain cleaners sitting on the grocery shelves too.

In the grocery store industry is a dirty little secret called “Slotting fees”- Manufacturers pay good money to grocery stores to ensure their products are on the shelves at a location 4 to 6 feet off the ground. Eye level. Because eye level has been researched to be most likely place people are going to reach for items. It is one reason people do not look up in stores like Home Depot and Lowes who merchandise to 8 and 10 feet up off the floor.

There is a science to laying out grocery stores. That is why you have to walk through the entire store to get your milk, chees and eggs, and you are directed through a maze of products to reach them for example. Companies have spent a great deal of money to study shopping habits and how they can optimize the amount of money you spend in the stores, and how to keep you in the store longer because the longer they can keep you in the store, the more money you are likely to spend. People who are well informed about what they are buying and are careful about what they buy deflect much of the “science” of marketting. But it takes effort to be vigilant about food buying and people don’t want to think too much when they are buying food.

So a simple question once again does not have a simple answer.
