This came out today. It is part of the problem, people have no clue how unhealthy they eat.

Americans Think They Eat Healthier Than They Really Do

Not only that, most people I know are not even aware of how unhealthy they really are.
Statins, blood pressure drugs, etc. are so normalized now that people don't even think they are sick! It's just a rite of passage at a certain age.
Nothing other people say or do is going to influence my diet or lifestyle. I will just shut up and keep eating my taters, beans, greens etc.
But I still get indignant, irate, saddened, frustrated and just plain
astounded at how misinformed Americans are about what "health" can actually mean. Reading through this thread is a good reminder that I can only control myself and my own habits.
SADD -but true
