When there is specific evidence of lying, hiding the truth, deliberate attempts to engineer toxic substances into the product...yeah, that's culpability. Are they the only people who are culpable? No, of course not. But to take High Fructose Corn Syrup as an example, it's a toxic substance that seriously fucks up your body. And it got pushed and pushed and pushed by the Ag companies. And everyone was told that it was fine, evidence to the contrary being hidden and downplayed. And now when we know it is really toxic, we have a generation that is addicted to the shit, it's in all sorts of products (like bread) that people don't even know to look for it and it still isn't regulated by the agencies that are supposed to ensure the safety of our food supply. You can try and claim that somehow Monsanto and ConAgra are not responsible for the systematic destruction of our food supply in this country but you're horribly wrong if you do.
