a prison of our own fat

We can try to use this word, but the United States Department of agriculture has only two million one years in the cause and food advertisers spent forty billion one years to persuade us, otherwise. Oh, maybe we do not want to thin anyway. Food: the proof is in the part We are a big man.65% of Americans are overweight, 30% actually obesity.How did we get to this point? We ate itself into a prison of our own fat. Why? Well, of course we don't sit down and decided we want to gain weight, is? We have no pressure on us to enrich themselves to some ultimate slaughter.On the contrary, as our collective increase in circumference, we stultify oneself is a cultural icon of the elevated as thin, happily fired corseted steady numbers in the last two centuries. Where is the disconnect between our reality, our ideal start?
We can blame processor who vitamin and mineral grinding we need.We can blame escape who reduce fiber and fresh in favor of additives and chemical substances.We can blame those who add sugar and starch packaging to all.We can be attributed to the fast food industry, can we blame deepfry beverage companies for their addiction to cola.
All of these make their contributions, our current predicament, one of our heat distress through all: portion sizes. We have hamburgers -- not great, Dopati, is just a standard hamburger -- this is 3 times as big as 30 years ago.Our order of French fries is at least two times in the 1970's the cousin.There is no longer a cheese pizza only at the top, but it is also full of the crust.Large soft drink water canned size but not the baby bottle.Recipes, once declared that "service on 8" now report "service 4", exactly the same composition.Bagels, muffins are 3 to 4 times their predecessors (and any fans all know, see Song Fei is worth it).Thank one's stars, hormone, can produce 20 to 30 pounds of Turkey we require our holiday dinner.
Comparison of small box of frozen vegetables, so the United States in the 1950's fear and huge bags available today, with butter or cheese sauce.TV dinner we don't balance the rickety table board is now to those same table will not hold them. The restaurant also grows, "to" almost standard container, because some customers can complete them (even though we tried very hard).Away from their smorgasbord buffet has become the root, in their products almost obscene.
No matter what the new cooking? Have fine food was completely engulfed the greedy gourmet? Is no longer a bulimia fatal mistake? Our love is no good deal: something for nothing, or at least at a discount.If we can get only a few ounces of some not worth mentioning the extra money, we swooped down on the larger size.
