Perhaps the women's liberation movement had a part to play in it, but I don't think it's reasonable to lay the blame squarely on their shoulders. Let's also not forget the cutting of funds to our nation's schools forcing them to pay for low-grade, high-carb foods for lunch and giving space on the playground for fatty snack vending machines to supplement their income.
And there's also the fact that, as one of the richest nations in the world, we have the luxury of having a SURPLUS of food. It's practically impossible to starve to death in America. Do you have any idea how many nations are MAD with envy over our having the luxury of being able to REFUSE food?
It's not a slab, my friend, it's a puzzle.
