Because of the bullshit period in the 80s and/or 90s when a low-fat diet was promoted as paramount.
Because it has enough adjectives for marketers to think they're signaling a premium product.
Because American simpletons will lap up shit.

This is not known and verifiable. After removing fats from American diets, many foods have had the carbohydrate contents increased. This may contribute to an increased caloric load, so it does not follow that removing fat from diet results in skinnier people.

I suspect one other factor is Social Media n TV watching n of course the Smart Phone

It's racist to not like the dark meat of a chicken

He said "After removing fats from American diets" which implies an overall decline in fat intake for the entire country, not just certain individuals.
@813,804 (C)
That's counter-intuitive. If low-fat diets were popular in the 80's and 90's then we shouldn't have seen significant increases in obesity until the mid-2000's.

And that's exactly what is so mysterious and why there is so much research. If you could provably and verifiably show how average American dietary intakes have impacted disease and quality of life then you'd have one hell of a doctoral thesis, industry accolades, and possibly even some distinguished fellowships.

@previous (C)I've often wondered if (lack of) smoking plays a small part. Nicotine being an appetite suppressant and all.

Yeah, it's an interesting question. I've seen my grandfather gain a lot of weight after stopping his life long smoking habit.
I am fascinated by some of the hypotheses about digestive flora having influences on signals of hunger and satiation.
I know that when my gut has been unhappy I have over eaten in some stupid attempt to settle how I feel.
