There are whole buildings dedicated to handing out food to keep people addicted.

Some people steal food to keep their addiction alive. Back in the 1800s they use to cut off people' s hands for stealing loaves of bread. Yet people kept stealing food....it never stopped. This food addiction leads directly to crime.

Funny thing is, everyone I know, who has managed to throw off their addiction to food, is now dead.

Weird.
