Sales of ultra-processed foods, snacks and sweets soared in the spring and continue to surge today. "We're all under stress and looking for ways to cope. For some of us, that means eating comfort foods," says Dr. Rachel Franklin, vice chair and medical director in the department of family and preventive medicine at the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine.

By Lloyd Princeton
One of the oft-repeated truisms in business circles is that the only constant is change. It’s not hard to see why.
