@donlayman I wish we could stop focusing on single foods and put more energy into eating patterns.

@donlayman Thanks for explaining. I was looking at NHANES data and found cheese and beef as the top two contributors. Is that where your data are from?

@donlayman Not sure I understand what you mean. I thought meat and cheese were the top sources of saturated fat in the US. Seed oils are relatively low in sat fat. Would you explain what you mean? Thanks!
