How can anyone say that Americans ate healthier in the olden days?

In history we learned about what people ate in the olden days (1900-1960's) and it mainly consisted of meats, potato, vegetables and tea.

Foods ate back then like bacon, eggs, sausages are full of fat and cholesterol and to make it worse it was cooked in lard! Plus porridge and toast were popular; porridge is fattening and stodgy and toast was spread with real butter and homemade jam; that is allot of fat and sugar.

Plus their meat and potato dinners are very unhealthy; meat is full of fat and clogs arteries, potatoes are junk food; they are really high-carb and they are very fattening.

Sandwiches were made with white bread and ham and cheese were popular choices; ham and cheese are full of saturated fat!

And of course the popular coffee and donuts; donuts are full of sugar and fat and to make it worse people usually had 2 sugars in coffee back then!

None of that is healthy!!!
