Processed foods are profitable. Whole foods (not the brand) are best and least profitable. That's why they're marketed heavily, but they can save money and improve nutrition.
Ironically, my own home-made granola bars are WAY more expensive than the ones they sell at the store. I assume they're worth the premium; but they're not cheap.
