Today's mass-produced factory turkeys are an example of what has happened to our food supply.

When breeding selects for quick growing turkeys, as in this example, then it does not select for taste or nutrition.

The same is true for fruits and vegetables. This is why we eat more than we should: our bodies stay hungry till their need for nutrients is satisfied, and if the food we eat contains fewer nutrients, then we eat more. Along with more food comes more calories, and the result is more weight.

Stay tuned for more examples, and meanwhile, think about heritage turkeys: they taste good. PL
