Nobody eats fruits/veg. Everyone overeats salt/sweets/fat. Nobody hits vegetable/fruit guidelines. Everyone overeats the foods that the guidelines warn against like sweets and processed meat.
This meme comes from people confusing the health-washing of the food industry with what the guidelines actually were.
Because food corps advertised low-fat foods, people think that's what the guidelines said. Because Snackwells made zero-fat cookies, people think these are the grains the guidelines told us to eat.
We'd see improvements in health outcomes if adherence to food guidelines increased.
