Your body responds to the intake of carbohydrates by creating insulin which regulates the storage of carbohydrates as “body fat” (see: glycogen). Overall, your body is 70% fat (cell membranes, for example). In other words, dietary fat != body fat and there is no reason that your body would store it as such (in adipose tissue), it actually, mechanistically, as far as I know, cannot.
