Your argument is sound, but overlooks that most people don't consume their entire daily caloric intake in a single meal. If I have a Big Mac, Fries and a medium soda, I'm almost certainly overfeeding myself for that meal.
- yummyfajitas 16y agoHere is a 3 meal/day McDiet with a beverage at every meal. Breakfast: Egg McMuffin (300 cals), Hash Browns (150 cals) and Coffee (0 cals). Lunch: McChicken (360 cals), Fries (380 cals) and Coca Cola (210). Dinner: Big Mac (540), Premium Southwest Salad with Chicken (320 cals), and Coca Cola (210). 2470 cals/day. To become obese, you need to add this: Afternoon Tea: Sweet Tea (150 cals) and McRib Sandwich (500 cals). Desert: Hot Fudge Sundae (330 cals). Now you are up to 3450 cals/day. There is nothing about being poor which compels you to spend money on the McRib Sandwich, sweet tea and the Hot Fudge Sundae. http://www.mcdonalds.com/us/en/food.html http://www.mcdonalds.com/us/en/food.html
- randallsquared 16y agoOf course you can stop eating, but a poor person is more likely to get the 50 nuggets for $10, instead. Twice, for a total of 4750 calories, minus the ones they don't get to in each meal before they get cold. ;)
