Agreed. Simply more of the same with no recognition of the real root cause. Sometimes taking the wrong actions can leave one with the sensation that something is being accomplished, so we quickly comply with taking actions that are ineffective and can actually make things worse. Let's dispense with this behavior, as this is how we got the food pyramid in the first place. Remember, politicians didn't have the luxury of time to test whether going low fat was sound science, people were dying. So, taking action resulted in an increasing obesity, T2D, CVD, and cancer epidemics that today are bankrupting governments and killing massive numbers of people.

There is a better way, but with people looking to elected officials to lead them out of the wilderness, it will be a long wait.
