>Unfortunately a vast section of the population are are classed poor or in poverty, and so cant afford anything better than wonder bread.
I don't think that's the case. Both because poor people, in countries with lower wages and higher cost of living, still buy regular bread, and also because in the US that shit is also consumed by not-so-poor and middle class families too.
>Its not a conspiracy to make you think that chemically created foods are as good as naturally produced unprocessed foods, its so that people who cant afford or dont have access to healthy natural food dont get deseases like rickets, spinal conditions, or other growth mutations which are common from malnutrition.
I doubt this as well, since the "with vitamins" badges are also on food that's way beyond necessary spending, from gum to expensive "high end" "healthy" cereal, all the way to power drinks that cost as much as a Starbucks latte.
I'm not talking about official state sponsored/mandated programs to add some beneficial substances to food stuff for the general population (which of course is good).

Well, I guess that's just basic marketing? Vitamins are approximately free to add, and some people are more likely to buy stuff that makes vitamin health claims, while approximately no one dislikes vitamins enough to stop buying a product because of vitamins in it.
