According to figures by the United States Department of Agriculture, calorie consumption in the United States per capita increased 20 percent between 1982 and 2000.
Puts the ever-increasing obesity epidemic in context, don't you think? Simply put, everyone in this country has been eating more in the past twenty years than ever before.
Once again, calories are calories. Notice the study doesn't mention "more carbs", "less protein", or "more meals after 9 PM".
