Sugar, absolutely. Which fats do you have in mind?
- SECProto 8y agoSugar and fats are both compounds present in nature, and evolution hardwired us to search them out as high calorie sources. Modern food processing has drastically lowered the cost/increased availability of those substances, allowing individuals and companies to increase the amount included in prepared/processed food. Oils are necessary to life and sugars aren't, is the only difference really. Eat food, mostly plants, not too much.
- st26 8y agoTrans fats perhaps, which we still allow in foods, and don't even need to be included on the nutritional label %'s if the amount is low. They're still everywhere, despite the fact we're pretty sure they are unhealthy at any dose.
