I theorize that much fatness is caused by fungus and its hijacking of the hormonal systems. Not that it is an excuse, just one of the underlying causes.

I propose it's the infinite availability of resources

Yeep. Interesting theory there. I think it probably has more to do with coping with stress. Another casualty of the weakening of family stability in modern times. Of course that is only for self-inflicted fatties. Fat kids are a product of their environment situation, which is sad.
