[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Food was healthier back then, and the science of making food taste irresistable was not as advanced as it is today. Our food is full of tasty additives and extra caleries that start food cravings. In the 1970s that was not as clearly understood, and used to our disadvantage like it is today. Not everyone's mom gave them the awful foods of the 1970s --there were health food "fanatics" back then also.[/quote]

Thanks to my parents influence of healthy eating we have maintained weight and moderation. We are in our 50s. Children also healthy eaters. We do eat sugery things from time to time --all things in moderation! My DH has never had a soft drink and does not want to start now. I have gone years between soft drinks. Years between snack foods. We don't do fast food. It is an extension of how you were brought up with regard to food. After some time, it is a habit. There are such things as good habits.[/quote]

PP here: I never noticed that DH did not drink soft drinks (cola) I do not like them either. Just not fond of snack foods. They taste fake and greasy to me. Ever notice that fast foods are salty and oily? I do not think other people really notice. It does not come up at parties --who cares if you don't do the chips? Most of the women don't. [/quote]
