nurses go hungry because of selfish greedy obese people

A big bag of beans and rice ordered from
Walmart or amazon, a big bottle of vitamins and we'll get by without even leaving the house.

I mean what better than beans when we're all couped up together watching TV?

I was overweight as a teenager, and I probably eat twice the amount of food now than I did then. I'm only about 10 to 12% bodyfat these days. I'd struggle to get fat now.

Yes, a lot of appetite is metabolism/hormones/age. I'm a little overweight but have little appetite and don't eat much. I dated a few people who were thin with high energy/metabolism, and to me they were always eating, I couldn't believe how hungry they got and how much food they consumed. I would hate to have to depend on food to that degree, not to mention the cost of getting all that food daily. I don't like spending much money on food in general so no thanks, give me my slower metabolism instead.

I don't think people consider the hormonal aspect of it enough (if at all). If someone is chronically overweight, it likely isn't anything to do with diet. I don't like this idea of pointing the finger at 'the obese' for that reason - possibly due to the fact that I eat more than they do.

A fast metabolism can be manipulated up to a point. Fat is obviously twice the calories of protein and carbohydrates, so one makes an effort to butter their bacon lol.

No but seriously, dietary fat is a good thing in that regard. You wouldn't actually want to eat more than what is enough. Carbs I can eat all day. Fat will eventually stop me in my tracks.

Those without money can't afford to get extra supplies, and they can't afford the higher priced items left on the shelves either. They keep returning to the shops to see what they can buy, if the cheaper items are restocked, with what little they have.

10,000 lined up in their cars waiting for a food bank distribution in San Antonio.
