I more or less agree with your point on dairy products, even though that has probably to do a lot with how dairy cattle is raised and how the milk itself is processed to produce cheese and other diary products. But be careful when you include "fats" in the "bad foods" category. If you know what you're doing, you can eat a lot of fats and still be healthy and lean...assuming you eat the "right" fats and a lot of veggies. Fats are not bad per se, this is a myth born from old (and totally wrong) beliefs that have been debunked by recent research. Sometimes, this misinformation is due to commercial reasons...like low-cholesterol foods, low fat food and so on. Ironically, you forgot to mention the one thing that probably caused the surge of nutrition-based diseases in the last century: (refined) carbs.
What is really damaging for the body is the combination of carbs and fats...and I'm pretty much convinced by now that sugar is a poison, plain and simple. I do everything I can not to ever touch it. There's just too much evidence about that.
