In recent years, there has been growing concern about the influence of big corporations on our food supply. One of the most controversial claims is that the processed food industry was created by the cigarette industry. This blog post explores the history of major acquisitions by tobacco giants like Philip Morris and R.J. Reynolds, their influence on food companies, and the alleged manipulation of public health guidelines. Tobacco Companies Acquiring Food Companies In the 1980s and 1990s, tobacco giants Philip Morris and R.J. Reynolds made significant moves into the food industry. Philip Morris acquired Kraft Foods in 1988 for $12.9 billion and later bought Nabisco in 2000 for $14.9 billion, creating one of the world’s largest food conglomerates1. Similarly, R.J. Reynolds merged with Nabisco Brands in 19852. These acquisitions allowed tobacco companies to diversify their portfolios and apply their marketing expertise to the food industry. #BigTobacco #FoodIndustry #ProcessedFoods #PhilipMorris #RJReynolds #FoodPyramid #PublicHealth #UltraProcessedFoods #AddictionScience #LobbyingInfluence
