I suspect the addictive effect of carbs combined with fake food infiltration, and I suspect very few are eating the traditional diet. One thing entirely overlooked in this "tech solutions for biological problems" approach is how so many cultures no longer have a job opening for homemaker.

Something has to give, and it's that 1950's "real women have shiny floors" aesthetic. But no one is cooking because no one has the time. Even though fast food is more expensive, it saves hours in the week and when we are exhausted it's three times as hard to stick with.

But it's still so economical. Even with the grocery prices artificially inflated. The baking goods companies are suing the egg companies for deliberately rigging the prices.

We need a better system than corporations suing each other to reveal the truth about their "business" practices.
