Exactly. Markets don't just magically solve problems that we hope they would. Rather, they optimize whatever result is dictated by incentives. There is in fact a market that has fixed this for those who choose (and have the means) to participate. For the vast majority, however - who either don't know, don't care, or have no viable alternative - the dominating incentive is price; not health. And, better prices are overwhelming a result of government intervention in favor of shittier food.
