NO! What has made our society so overweight is a major change for the worse in diet. It has nothing to do with old thinking. In fact if we all still thought that way we wouldnt have car companies putting bigger seats in their cars for the growing american bottom.

In 1950 the most popular beverage for the US teenager was milk. Beleive it or not. At the emerging fastfood restaurants the "large" soda was 8 us ounces. Now the "Kiddie" soda is 10 us ounces! A Coke and Fries are among the worst things you can eat, yet many of us do it daily, and in far greater quantities than we should. THAT IS WHY WE ARE FAT!
