Overweight too much addressed or not enough. Which factors have contributed to large weight differences in society? Although exercise plays a role the great weight factor lies in what and when we eat. Plain food started to become boring when manufactured food was richer in colour and flavour. Ready meals were "in" grocery was "out". Meanwhile most of us cannot cook anymore, I mean know how to make various gravies, total homemade custard and other basic recipes. Also if you eat raw food ie vegetables and fruit at work for lunch your colleagues think you are some bioculture, you are totally out of fashion and most likely never take a warm meal. We frequently face pressure in doing what others do (maybe no meal and drink instead) or have a take-away which becomes a regular chips (fries) and something and finally ends in working lunchtime through. The majority of companies have cut down on canteens and only few have the priviledge of "posh" food halls. We find ourselves eating in the evening and sometimes very late at night when the largest meal should be in the morning. But who exactly has a 2-course breakfast in the morning? You find more people agreeing on a quick coffee at 10am when at work. Consequently our children will do the same. Many come home from school with no meals cooked but really they say they are not very hungry after all they had money for the school canteen and some have to buy for the second time on the way home and might eat the only proper meal very late at night. Now how expensive is it to keep children and adults in top shape. You would need to precook or be a little bit selective in the food hall. You will need to be home early enough to cook in time. You will need to shop regularly fresh grocery. How many parents can actually afford to stay home and cook? And how would you feel picking up your children on a bike or public transport. Yet one new car and one decent family holiday is often one parent's income a year. How much money is really going into food? Many only realise how much more a healthy balanced diet can cost when they start loosing weight. Have you seen the young lady? She bought around 10 grapes and pulled them off the bunch so they do not carry any extra weight.
