Theres a lot more economic impact from fats than just the food. All the fuel used to make and transport it, packaging, extra fuel from vehicles and planes hauling all the excess lard around, the constantly destroyed clothing from fats never ending expansion, broken chairs, medical costs, it just goes on and on and on.

It really does. They hit with societal costs, but also personal costs. You know how many items I've had a fat take and break, without asking for permission? Too many to count. And how many times have they offered to compensate me for the loss? Zero. Just being around fats will hit you in the pocketbook.
