People in the US often confuse being hungry with starving. Being hungry is a product of habitation. Someone who eats a lot will generally feel hungry on a diet that most people would be satisfied with. I'm one of those people. If you fed me a diet many people I know eat, I will feel hunger, but I certainly won't be starving. Over time, my body would acclimate and I wouldn't feel as much hunger.
Starvation and malnutrition are problems worth worrying about. Hunger in the absence of starvation or malnourishment is not.
