I think I saw a documentary where they showed that brain scans of people addicted to sugar looked the same as those addicted to cocaine, and in some lab-rat study where they got rats/mice addicted to both sugar and cocaine, and got the choice to picke between them, they chose sugar over cocaine 9 times out of 10.

There's a term in the industry that's used for the amount of sugar that makes a food tastier/more addictive while not making it too sweet, don't remember what it is though. But yeah, it's like you said, they add it to everything to make it better tasting and more addictive.

There was some lab-rat study super long ago where they got mice/rats addicted to sugar and cocaine, then let them pick between the two - and they chose the sugar every single time.

In Sweden, which I definitely consider to be part of the "civilized western part of the world", getting caught with weed has dire consequences.
