New Sugar consumption.
Though that's part of the story. Bad science in the food and nutrition industries and vested interests more interested in making money than anything else are also to blame.

I found this with a simple Google:

More information is in Sweet Poison http://www.goodreads...ugar-makes-us-fat and Big Fat Lies http://www.goodreads...9011-big-fat-lies

New Sugar is evil!
Artificial sweeteners are more evil - and contribute to obesity by not turning off hunger.

Fortunately, I've never been addicted to sweet, I prefer pungent and sour. I am not at all a desert person either.

New The "low-fat" industry is also a problem.
And it's based on flawed science.

But in fact, processed food is a problem. Avoid that and you avoid a lot of sugar and "wrong" fats and other chemicals.

I'm sure you know this! :-)
