Addictions are all based on the brain's release of dopamine and serotonin; whether it be triggered by food, drugs, or sex. If it happens to you, it's real. The human digestive system is very complicated - the digestive tract is second only to the brain in the number of neurons, and there are many chemicals and hormones that trigger the "eat; don't eat" response. Why should we think that the corporations that process our food are on a higher moral ground than say, cigarette manufacturers, who knowingly made their product more addictive? They're in business to sell their product for a profit. That means "more product to more people."
