How diet had changed with time

How did our nutrition changed from 1960 to 2014 ? The consumption of meat went from 26% to 20 % The reason could have been the Hygienic crises of poultry and meat during these years and the economical crises of the last 10 years. But at the same time the consumption of fruits and vegetables went from 18% to 15% and the one of cereals from 14 to 12 % Even though the consumption of fruits and cereals has reduced the obesity had increased. Fish went from 2,5 % to 5% and eggs and dairies from 8 to 12 %. Sugars products ( sweets, drinks, sugar ) from 5 to 7%. Sodas increased from 4 to 7% and alchool consumption declined. These clarify that the increase of obesity in the population is not 
dependent only on the type of food we eat, but more predominantly on the type of activity we keep our body on.
