[GrannyAnn]

I'm 63. My grandmother called it sugar diabetes and claimed fat was good for you.

My mother said poor Mexicans were fat because they ate so much rice and beans.

We used to know the truth. Then came big Pharma.

rice, beans, corn.

30 years of corn starch, high fructose CORN syrup, and worse and... here we are.

My grandparents ate everything on their plates, fat, gristle, mopping it all up with dark Bauernbrot/rye/pumpernickel bread.

3 outta 4 died by age 66 of heart disease/atherosclerosis/stroke.

My Dad’s mom lived to be 103. Go figure.
