Agree completely. The point is that food producers are playing (wittingly or not) into the fact that our human biology is geared towards the storage of fat. Your body's primal survival mechanism is a hard thing to overcome. In more scarce times, people spent most of their energy in the pursuit of finding something to eat. Now you use about 8 calories to reach out your car window, grab your 1500 calorie supersized meal, and set it on your passenger seat.
