yes "bread" is making people fat. the staple of most civilizations since the dawn of history.
refined grains is listed along with your 'sugar processed food', which i note isn't specific in itself. The point i was trying to make was the consumption of carbohydrates, which i think accounts for almost 50% of a typical western diet, seems to have a bigger variance in body size (not necessarily fat).

but, in the end, it's calories and food quality.
