I saw some pictures of local people including my parents before marriage, taken around 1910. There were no fat people. Nobody was even slightly obese.There were no supermarkets or grocery stores. This being rural Southern Indiana, what you had to eat was what you could grow or kill. I would assume this was the case nationwide for this time period and earlier.
