Uploaded by npr on May 9, 2011
What makes bad food so good? NPR's Debbie Elliott and Dave Anderson, filmmaker for Oxford American, team up to explore issues of appetite and health in Holmes County, the most obese county in Mississippi. It's the first of an ongoing spotlight on the South called Southword. (Video by Dave Anderson Photography/Oxford American)

@twatters55 I was thinking the same thing. More people should read Why We Get Fat by Gary Taubes.

@hoghtonborn Did you watch to 5:44? Of course she can cook. That's not the issue. The issue is that affordable fresh produce of decent quality isn't available as readily as cheap, processed, high-fat food. When you're on a limited budget and you have three kids crying to be fed NOW, and you can buy a whole fast food meal more cheaply than a pound of mushy apples, it's no wonder people make the choices they make.
