Who's Better - Today's Stars or Yesteryear's Stars?

It's quite clear that the cause of mass obesity is sugar added to our foods by the manufacturers.

When I was growing up, there was no obesity epidemic. Then, based upon, you know, science, the prevailing wisdom became that fat in our diet caused high rates of heart disease and stroke. So our food was altered to remove the fat. It tasted like shit, so they added sugar. The result is obesity.

It's becoming clear to those who are revisiting the "science" that sugar is toxic and that the most anyone should eat is 6 tsp per day. The western diet is something like 22 tsp per day. When I say toxic, I mean it causes all sorts of actual disease, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Yep, sugar causes the same damage as drinking alcohol. But as Robert Lustig says, you can only drink yourself under the table once a day, but you can eat and eat and eat and overdose on the sugar.
