Hi Ed,

The obesity epidemic is caused by the SAD (Standard
American Diet). What you call "junk food", is
the stuff that sits unrefrigerated in most pantries.
So they would be hitting that stuff, making matter
worse.

Also realize, that "healthy carbs" is a lie and
"healthy carbs" is THE main offenders in SAD.
There is no such thing as a healthy carb.
I got bamboozled by that "health carb" marketing
crap and wound up with T2.

All of the health issues caused by SAD will not
go away until we return to a "historically
appropriate human diet". It does not help
that high glycemic carbs are wildly addictive
and very hard to kick.

I said that in jest but you bring up a good point. Instead of traveling
to another store for some good fruit and veggies, some of the people
will take the easy way out and buy junk at the dollar store.
Pre-packaged carbs with preservatives.
You bring up a good point too.

I have to make ALL my own food. Once you get in the
routine and teach yourself how, it does to take all
that much longer than the pre-prepaired stuff.
And it tastes a hell of a lot better.

Meh. I've always made most of my food. The occasional
husband-requested Campbell's soup casserole doesn't hurt
us a bit.
