That's exactly what I mean, "America" isn't health conscious. It's kind of a group think type thing, for a lot of people.
One of the most basic things you learn in psychology is when everyone around you is doing something, it makes it right in your mind to do it as well.
For example, at sports games when people start going nuts and go on the field and beat the shit out of people. Once the first person starts it, it's like a chain reaction and everyone else thinks they can do it too and it's fine.
I never understood why jocks went nuts after winning games. Only thing I can remember when my soccer team won districts was drenching coach (my dad) with a couple tubs of water, almost like when most football teams win. I just never understood the jumping up and down and acting like a complete nuisance, unless they were making fun of druggies at a rave.
I try to be somewhat health-conscious. The only thing I've had fast food for two weeks was a Crunch-Wrap Supreme and some potato wedges from KFC-Taco Bell. Only reason was, my mom didn't want to go any place else, and we had to get a bunch of cleaning done. I wish streets had fruit vendors, or fruit vending machines that kept them extremely fresh until you get it.
Taco Bell is actually a pretty healthy fast food place. I worked there for a year and a half, ate there everytime I worked, and I didn't gain a pound. I weighed a good, healthy 160. Now that I've got an office job and I sit on my ass all day, I weigh 180. Gay.

As long as the fruit was kept in deep cool this would be possible. The chef where I work recently threw out some apples he'd had stored in a cooler for 12 months, a full year. They were the green skinned type of apple, and they look exactly like you'd get them from the supermarket. No blemishes.
It's that simple? I thought you might have to add some preservative, but if it would be the same temp as a coke machine that would be great. Cold fruit is delicious.

Herd mentality for the win.
All it takes really is a little observation to spot when you're doing something because other people are doing it, and to decide if it's something you actually care to continue doing.
