Nutrition facts don't matter if all your choices are unhealthy.

If you visit any chain restaurant, nearly every meal (even the healthy looking ones) has added sugars and simple carbs.



This is so true. Here in Mexico, we've got a new law requiring large "Warning Labels" [1] warning of excess sugar, fat and calories. However, now when you go to the supermarket to buy say, cereal or tomato paste all the available options have all the same seals.

If you limited your purchases to the "healthy" options, you would basically had to buy fruit, vegetables and raw poultry, meat and fish.
