Look at some old news clips from the 1950’s+ or so (the clips from the Kennedy assignation have big crowds). You’ll be hard pressed to find a fat person. They ate comfort food - real, natural foods like meat, cheese, salt, sugar, milk, and butter. They also fed this food to their children.”

People walked from their parking space or the bus to their jobs. Those kids didn’t sit in front of a computer or a X-Box each and every free minute of the day. They actually played outside—got exercise—etc.
There were NOT very many people on Welfare, living off the taxpayers and sitting on their collective asses doing nothing.

Show me a kid who lives today on a ranch or a farm and has to do their share of the chores, and you will find health youngsters. We have raised a whole generation of chair sitters, who have TV remotes.

I was there in D.C. after the assignation, my father took me, yes, I'm old enough to remember very few fat folks lumbering around.

Coke tasted great because it was mostly natural cane sugar grass juice (not artificial chemical modifying hormones as mentioned above).

That is a great point because right about that time HFCS became a larger and larger part of our food supply.

And their food would be real. They'd grow or raise their own.
