I think traditional diets work....as long as people are active. Over the centuries you could eat all that great fat, energy rich stuff when you were out working the fields all day or doing manual labor. You needed the energy and you worked it off. Today though, if all you do is sit in front a computer for 8 hours a day, munching on camembert might not be ideal.
At the end of the day though, I'd rather eat fatty "real" food, than chemically processed "health food". I grew up on a traditional Hungarian diet (about as fatty as it gets!) and I'm pretty average in terms of weight.
