Thanks, Bakes.
Have some clafoutis.
Can it be reversed?

But people in the 60's didn't eat carnivore/paleo/keto.
So, whatever caused it, if that process were reversed, would it reverse obesity?
Not necessarily asking you, but just pondering.
People in the 60's ate carbs, and lots of them.
Carbs alone did not make these folks fat.
What caused it? What caused so many bodies to not be able to process carbs?
Anon has an opportunity to read a lot of food labels. Over the last few years, the sugar content in processed foods has started reducing and a lot of products doing away with HFC.
I agree, sugar is a big culprit that has damaged so much health.
I agree. I think it was a combination of factors.
Anon's fixed a big noon dinner everyday. She made both cornbread and biscuits at every meal, chicken or game meat; either fried or in gravy, and a bunch of rice, potatoes, canned fruit and vegetables. She always had a sweet: peach or berry cobbler, or banana pudding or pear pie. We all drank very sweet tea.
When she made pancakes, she had so much grease in the skillet that the batter floated. She served it with ribbon cane, and with biscuits, bacon and eggs
None of us were fat.
That said, she used lard, and butter, But I can remember her buying what the old folks called oleo.
Anon just thinks it's more than just sugar and vegetable oils, but maybe I've just been on this board too long and suspicious of everything.
Obesity
Anon also thinks the lack of time, and working mothers has contributed to the obesity epidemic, as well.
Not many has time to cook real food anymore.
