I used to make fun of the kids eating paint chips, but it turns out I ate off Corelle lead tainted dinnerware for most of my life.

Unless you were chipping the paint off the plates and eating that, your "exposure" to lead via corelle was negligible at best.

If Corelle plates, which are in millions of homes still, were actually a health hazard don't you think major health organizations would be warning against their use instead of just one blogger who was kicked out of her nonprofit?

I mean the American Heart Association claimed that we should be eating more carbs (sugar) and less saturated fat/meat at one point, and look where that got us (obesity)

You're saying Americans followed that advice and started eating less saturated fat? And those Americans are the ones that became obese? High carb low fat diets are still good for heart disease.
