Sorry, that looks like another 'blame everything on the big bad corporations' piece of propaganda.
And it's premised on a false dichotomy: Willpower vs food industry. It's both. Just because producers dump corn sugar in a lot of products doesn't mean consumers have to eat vast quantities of those products. Nobody puts a gun to someone's head and makes them guzzle 6 cans of coke a day instead of drinking water. And nobody puts a gun to the head of parents to make them drive their kids everywhere and let them spend most of their free time watching TV and playing video games. We do have choices. And a lot of people make bad ones. Pretending everyone is a victim who has no free will doesn't do us any good.
