[quote=Anonymous]It wasn't the food. It was just the level of physical activity. I'm 50 and as a kid in the 70s/80s if something wasn't on TV, you didn't watch TV. There weren't many options. We had video game systems but they weren't as immersive. Games were one and done...no drawn out campaigns or online components. You played a few games and then went outside with your friends. Summer days weren't planned out. You went outside in the morning and returned when the street lights came on. Most of the time in between consisted of physical activity. Now, everything is geared to have you sit down and consume. Companies make more money that way. [/quote]
