      Just as bad as this is the recommendation to choose low-fat or fat-free stuff. If you're not getting the calories you need from fats, you're likely going to end up bridging the gap with something sugary. There's a reason why the sugar industry had such a big role in dietary recommendations, and why it took us over 50 years to realize "hey maybe eating sugar is really bad", and today we kinda paper over that.
