Being poor and active. I think the whole “high sugar/calorie food is prevalent and cheap” is a symptom of relatively wealthy counties that have leisure time.

Being poor and active. I think the whole “high sugar/calorie food is prevalent and cheap” is a symptom of relatively wealthy counties that have leisure time. I feel like if bad food wasn’t so cheap and we worked 7 days a week, that would “fix” our culture. But since the cat’s out of the bag, I don’t see us going back to constant work. We seem to like leisure time and sugar is really cheap. Even in “poor” countries, diabetes is creeping up because we’re getting the processed foods from Europe and the US.
