It's no coincidence that laziness and fatness tend to go hand in hand - food that is quick and available is usually less healthy. I'm thinking of my work's cafeteria for example.... there is candy but no fruit (except maybe overpriced apples); there are muffins and eclairs but no sweet potatoes; there are chips but no prosciutto/melon; there are lots of fried food but no avocado (they do have nuts but they are covered in stuff that make them pretty unhealthy).
The other factor is that when you're fat, you've destroyed your taste buds. Berries don't taste sweet, nuts don't taste oily, prosciutto isn't salty. They are so used to consuming foods with massive amounts of sugar or oil or salt that subtle amounts of the same thing don't register. It's why they load their coffee with an amount of sugar that would make most of us gag.
Not trying to make excuses for them - a little extra effort to get the food and a little will power to 'fix' your taste buds is all it takes.

+1 at sweetness detection fucked up. When I quit soda, sweet potatoes started to taste like candy, and candy started to taste like vomit.

It's disgusting how much they ruin their bodies, down to the fucking tastebuds?? How the fuck do they not clue in to this??

The fruit is always so unappealing. I live in Australia and the fruit is always slightly bruised just casually sitting on the warm counter. I wish they kept the apples in the fridge at least and enough people brought fruit that they could supply fresh and appealing looking fruits.
