Don't forget that the size of a plate increased. Nation wide. All at the same time. To me, this was the biggest change. I remember at a picnic I thought my portion was skimpy. It wasn't, the new plate size was released. (Late 70s) ? I never realized it was by design. The epidemic of fat diabetics was released. Plus, high fructose corn syrup was invented. This was a controlled demolition.
If you went back, I am pretty sure fructose syrups was the primary changing factor for obesity. Even people who drank sodas a ton during the 60s didn't get as fat as we do now, and it wasn't until the late 70s/early 80s even that HFCS was used in mainstream sodas.
Now it's everywhere and in everything.
And, there may be more fructose in these syrups than initially thought too.
If you look at anything made for rehydrating people efficiently, it's sugar and salt.
Yet, everyone says sugar is bad for you, and if you don't think so, just eat a bunch of candy and soda.
But if you look at the label, it's corn syrup and garbage like that.
I completely cut out soda with corn syrup, and only drink soda with real sugar, and I honestly feel so much better when I drink them, and now drinking corn syrup soda, instantly makes me sick.

Yes, this is something people don't think about.

Yeah, hfcs good. Sugar good. Saturated fat bad. Meat bad.
