How can anyone say that people in the UK 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 (white bread) 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.

Fish and chips were a weekly thing and they were deep fried in beef dripping and were drowned in salt and vinegar and served with white bread spread with butter!

And of course the popular tea and biscuits; biscuits are full of sugar and to make it worse people usually had 2 sugars in tea back then! Plus scones were popular and spread with clotted cream!
