Hah. They say most guys try to include the basic junk food groups with every day’s meals and snacks.
Greasy, salty, fatty, sugary.
According to the History Channel, there was no concept of “snacks” and “snacking” as a trend until recent decades. Before the late 1950s there apparently weren’t snack displays, snack rows in grocery stores and commercials of competing snacks.
Hard to imagine that.
Yeah it is hard to imagine that. I am not much of a grazer type eater. I metabolize slowly anyway. But a lot of “healthy” style marketing is garbage food. I felt best when I was 100% Keto. I lost weight pretty easily. Going off it, the weight rebounded. And it wasn’t because of snacks or way too many calories. I believe it was because of food types. And, I can admit, not enough exercise or activity.
Growing up in the 40s and 50s, there was no snacking, not even with healthy foods. We ate three times a day at which times we were appropriately hungry. This is among the many reasons that I think today’s 75 to 90 year olds are going to be the healthiest old cohort for many future generations.
We also walked everywhere as families only had one car which went to work with our fathers. When we got older, we continued or started exercising, if we had not before.
The Amish are gonna win.
