      Right, so obesity appeared coincidentally just after the DG were adopted and the food market was restructured to comply. Only a nutrition academic would make such an argument... DG shifted food intake to obesogenic pattern, compare to obesogenic lab diets.

      In what way do you think the food markets were restructured to fit DG? For example, DGs have been recommending reducing sugar for decades while sugar contents of most drinks have been increasing

      "Food scientist participants of the roundtables informed their dietitian colleagues that food companies typically spend 60% to 70% of their research and development budgets on renovation and only 30% to 40% on innovation of new food products." Woah!

      Two things: 1. Those appear to be entirely reasonable suggestions with you attributing weird conspiracies for no discernible reason 2. Neither is even moderately close to providing evidence for your statement

      Where is the evidence that food markets were "restructured" to fit the DG? For example, a type of food shifting to better suit the guidelines being sold at scale

      It's In the link I already provided. Why don't you go read it? You can also find the Dietary Guidelines Implementation Committee's 1991 report, where they also discuss this.

      That is a paper describing a dialogue between professionals. It is not, by any reasonable description, evidence for your conclusion Probably because there isn't any

      Replying to @GidMK @CakeNutrition

      It's a dialog between professionals who are food industry scientists, discussing how they've restructured to meet the DGA, with dieticians and government reps. If you're not going to bother reading it, I'm not going to waste time, as then you're a troll. 😉

      That is not evidence that the food market was restructured, that is evidence that, in 2011 - decades after guidelines were established - various orgs were discussing what they could do to meet the guidelines

      And IT GETS BETTER. Most of the paper is about WHY THEY HAVEN'T MADE ANY IMPACT ON THE FOOD MARKETS YET So, uh, I'd still like some evidence. Any evidence, really
