Yes, Big Tobacco companies have been investing in ultra-processed food companies. The tobacco industry's diversification strategy included acquiring major food companies such as Kraft, General Foods, and Nabisco. These acquisitions were part of a broader effort to leverage their marketing expertise and distribution networks in the food sector, which was seen as a way to offset potential losses in the tobacco market. The strategy was to create "hyper-palatable" processed foods that were designed to maximize consumption and profits, much like they did with cigarettes. This approach has been linked to the rise of obesity, diabetes, and other chronic diseases across the country.
