Why would anyone want to mess with a set up that feeds our economy so well???[/QB]

Yes! Good point! Difficult to find an answer for this right away too. Well, the food industry would still cash out from selling health foods (usually I have noticed that healthy foods are more expensive than junk foodds; for instance fat free chicken is more expensive than the regular chicken). But then again, some people would continue to buy junk food because of the lower price; so nothing solved. IF all that was sold is health foods at a price equal to junk food or a lower price, this would be enough incentive for much of the society to switch their eating habits, I think.
But what about the lawyers? They would make money off of suing the current junk-food-producers.
And the doctors? Well, they would make less money if people are healthy, so perhaps some of the doctor industry would go out of business... So what? Big deal! Different industries/types of businesses go out of business all the time in this country: It's part of this society: Competition and improvements for the better, which drive some business down.
