So I found this while checking my email.  It's very interesting to see ADs promoting weight gain.  Wow!  This article says obesity started to climb around 1975.  Corn Syrup I found was introduced to the US market in 1975.  I'm not blaming corn syrup but I blame refined carbonates and an abundance of Corn Syrup in everything!!!! It was and still is cheap, manufactures love this stuff! Coincidence?  Maybe?  What do you all think?

It's funny how a culture changes. Now it's the Mary Kate and Ashleys of the world people are aspiring to be.
