As soon as I posted this entry a friend of mine IMed and said I was wrong and had it reversed, that exercise has declined and that this factor is more important than diet in explaining obesity. It sounded to me a little like the "your chocolate is in my peanut butter" argument and he cited a website that was actually funded by the restaurant industry, but without any evidence to back it up it makes more sense to me that we are taking in more calories. I know this is true for me, anecdotally. Funny you should mention a study.

We have also tried to cook more at home, and it is not only healthier but tastes way better too!
