But nowadays there is more food around us and they also tend to come in larger portions/sizes than before which cause people to eat more while, at the same time, makes them more and more addicted to the food. And that is the one of the main reasons for the rise of obesity, I believe.

I agree, but the point is that heart disease is a lot more common than before (especially in America) and it can be directly linked to the type of foods we eat.

Yeah ... so what? I didn't really find it that embarrassing for myself. Maybe you would. I did worse things than that which I'm not going to say.
And I wasn't quite "chugging" it. I drank it from a small a medicine cup, in small sips.
