It’s not a failed science. It tells us useful things all the time including countless things that you take for granted. Pointing out industry interests and better evidence superseding worse evidence doesn't change that.
In my experience, harping on epidemiology always seems to boil down to inconsistent epistemological standards that favor the foods someone wants to eat.
Most commonly, epidemiology is shit because it gives us strong causal inferences for trans and saturated fats being bad for us BUT we want to eat meat and dairy so nvm epi studies suck except for the ones I take for granted.
