How is that possible? It’s because manufacturers replace the fat with something else. And that something else is often sugar.

If you want to become fat, eat a lot of sugar (this turns your body into fat-storage mode). A good way to eat more sugar is to buy low-fat products. Maybe it’s no coincidence that the low-fat craze perfectly coincides with the modern obesity epidemic?

(Yes, that was a rhetorical question).
