I see what people eat for lunch at work. Plates piled with pizza, big bottles of soda, and microwave processed crap.

I'm so old I remember when poverty meant starving.
Now the Dims claim poverty leads to being too fat.

Obese by 2035?
That’s a long range goal right there.
I could be obese but 2024 no problem.

I doubt it. Food supply is radically decreasing due to government actions around the world. Populations get fat when food is plentiful and thus cheap and get thin when it is expensive and not so plentiful.

Corn-syrup slop will always be cheap, real food is what is getting more and more expensive.

The elephant in the room is we don’t eat natural food anymore. It’s all factory processed with preservatives and who knows what else? But let’s blame the consumers because shut up.

This another “news release” by another organization with an agenda and needing funding.
Not written by a reporter. Is anything written by a reporter anymore?

Think of all the experts who have been wrong. In the sixties by nineteen seventy we were going to be out of oil and in a new ice age. Then there was “peak oil.” Then China was going to have billions of people and now, by midcentury their population is predicted to be half as large as it is now. Oh, and don’t forget we were going to have flying cars and moving sidewalks by 1960. When I was a kid I thought that by 1970 everyone would be so fat they’d all need electric carts to move around. Today I was getting breakfast at a crowded gas station. Yes, there were some fat people there. (All black women, by the way.) But there was an equal number of well-muscled workmen, also black, as well. The smattering of white people were neither fat, nor thin; just “average.” I started paying attention to the builds around me when I noticed the black man in front of me had forearms beefier than my thighs.

I ate three copies of Ehrlich’s Population Bomb for lunch. I should have stopped at two.

Our growing ubiquitous screen culture, climate controlled buildings and a massive decrease in strenuous physical labor. The poor are the most likely to be obese, the rich are the most likely to be thin.
It would make for a pretty good sci-fi story 100 years ago.
