I pointed out that there are any number of scientific studies proving it's not about what you eat but how much. That fell on deaf ears of course.
I hate the implication that people are fat because they are poor and can't afford good food so damn much. I grew up dirt ass poor. No running water or working electricity often poor. We didn't get fast food we couldn't afford it. $20-$25 dollar might be what we had to feed everyone for the whole week. Hell the man and I had fast food a few weeks ago and it was $15 for our meals. I don't consider that a cheap meal at all.
I have decided a larger portion of the population has nothing I want to eat confused with nothing to eat.

I never try to reason with fatties. Hell, I try not to interact with them at all.

Long story short---the kind of food doesn't really matter. It's simple CICO. I can personally prove it. I lost pregnancy weight by counting calories and a little more exercise. Know what I ate while counting calories? Beer, coffee, cake, sometimes chips, veggies, sweet tea, and pretty much whatever I wanted and still lost the weight.

declares it can feed its entire family for $15 to $20 fast food places such as McDonald's.
That's a lot of money. My boyfriend and I pay about forty dollars a week for just us. We splurge here and there, but overall we're happy with rice/chicken/beans, etc. If we had a family, it'd of course go up, but nothing nearing twenty dollars for just one meal! Especially if we were really struggling!

My bf's mom has celiacs and she never eats out because of it though... The whole gluten thing puts a damper on fast good

My Mom has celiac disease (recently diagnosed) and I'm currently waiting my results from my endoscopy to see if I have it. I have cut out pretty much all fast food because my blood testing showed the markers for it. You'd be amazed where gluten hides. It's in everything since it's such a cheap filler/thickener.

McDonalds is not cheap. Fat people are lazy and complacent. That's how they get fat. And that's why they stay fat.
