Definitely, Alice. One of the oddities about the situation...and I've noticed this...is that most people, it seems, would far rather eat the stuff they usually do (fried food, deep-fried food, food loaded with salt or sugar, overcooked food, pizza, hamburgers, peameal bacon, etc) than eat some fresh fruits or vegetables instead.

As well as access to better food, there must also be a better effort made to educate the public about what to eat in order to be healthier.

When people are accustomed to eating processed food that is full of either salt or sugar or some other heavy spice, then they find the taste of fresh fruits and vegetables "too bland". It doesn't meet their accumstomed expectations.
