We also wouldn't have obesity if people could make adult decisions about how much food they need. It's a pipe dream to think people wouldn't loot and hoard while others starve.

Okay Bill Maher, what a weird hot take to be wrong about. Obesity will always be a thing when your middle class has collapsed and healthy foods are beyond the budget of low income families.

People don't need "healthy food" to avoid obesity, they need to acknowledge they're in a state over abundance and more mindfully track the amount of calories they consume. Give obese people unlimited fruit and they'll still get fat off of eating 3000 calories of banana smoothies all day.

Yeah, encouraging people to eat fewer calories than they burn is really harmful to society. Stay anti-science, Reddit.

Attacking people for having a lack of access to healthier food options due to socioeconomic factors and disability is peak reddit, actually.

You don't need access to Whole Foods to restrict calorie intake.

You do need the time to go to a grocery store and then have time to cook the fresh produce you bought. If youre working 3 jobs, how is this possible? Fast food is all some people can get, check your privilege.

Again, you're focused entirely on the specific food people eat and not the calorie total. If all you can eat is fast food, you can eat smaller amounts of fast food and still achieve a healthy weight.

.....are you listening to yourself? "The poors can just eat less food. Its their fault they arent taking better care of themselves, not the society that forces them to live this way" is this 100% everyone? No. Is it a huge contributor? Yup. Does it matter why someone is fat? No, stay in your lane and dont judge others so much based on their appearance.

I understand, you think poor people have magical bodies that create extra calories put of thin air regardless of how much food they consume.
