I am not so sure about steady fat intake. One of the recent tendencies was replacing animal fat with oil in various bakeri products as a way to reduce price. As a vegan I should welcome that, however one typically needs much more cheap oil in calories than butter to get a product with about the same properties. So we get increase in calories when all of them are stored as fat. Again, as a vegan I am very aware of that as I gained about 4 kilos before I realized my mistake with bakery with too much oil.
It is true that to compensate for the worsen taste with cheap oils in bakery products, the producers add more sugar. However medical experiments that I am aware showed that humans are very bad at converting excessive sugar into fat. The body rather generates heat from extra carbohydrates than converts them to fat for storage unless one eats really way too much of sugar. That level is still well above what is found in a typical current western diet.
