Exactly, people in the US have taken this to the extreme.

Just because everybody's been stuffing themselves with over processed bread, donuts and fries and have gotten obese doesn't imply that carbs are evil point blank and you must never eat them. That's just insane.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the atlantic and in the rest of the world, people in France eat their baguette everyday, Italians eat pizza and pasta all the time, most of the Asian continent lives on white rice every meal, etc..., and these are among the thinnest populations you will find.

How this argument is never considered is beyond me.
