> Off the top of my head, fast food advertisments should be made illegal
This is ridiculous. Nearly everyone I know who is overweight eats hardly any fast food.
What I do see is lots of snacking throughout the day on high carb things (chips, breads, etc) and just way too many calories due to large serving sizes in both regular “slow food” restaurants and meals made at home.
Fast food meals if you skip the sugared soda tend to be closer to proper per meal calorie targets than sit down restaurants because of how cheap they are.
At sit down restaurants the price is higher to support a wait staff and lower throughput so they compensate with ridiculously huge portions.
