Maybe the change in the lifestyle prompted the change in the food industry, but the change in the lifestyle isn't to blame. The food industry didn't HAVE to start being a bastion of giant portion sizes and processed crap. We didn't ASK it to become that.

McDonald's existed before the obesity epidemic. Frozen foods existed then, too, as did advertising.
Your argument is lousy because you've flipped cause and effect.
