Do processed foods call you? Do you crave soda and lattes? The food industry aka Big Food has an enormous amount of resources to investigate which foods are most rewarding to the human brain. The five most “addictive” substances are refined grains, sugar, salt, fat, and caffeine. A cinnamon bun and a latte has all five of these elements!
