[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in the late 60s and 1970s. The biggest differences in eating I recall are that we ate out so, so much less back then than a typical family does today - really just on “special occasions” like birthdays, and adults did not snack and kids snacked a lot less. The restaurant part alone is huge because portion sizes are much larger in restaurants, and the more you get used to that, the larger your portions become at home, too. We definitely ate junk food although really I don’t recall my parents eating it, just we kids. And yes kids were more active but it seems that OP is mainly asking why adults were more thin back at that time. [/quote]
