I don't know if you've seen it, but putting the blame on fat was an orchestrated effort by the sugar industry: https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/09/13/493739074...

The appeal to naturalism is kind of iffy, though. The kinds and amount of fat we eat might be substantially different than many of our ancestors. I'm not making an argument either way, just that I doubt modern food resembles ancient diets.
