I have long suspected this to be the case. I have observed the association of obesity with "impoverished" Americans. Think about the kinds of food poor people buy. Macaroni, Ramen noodles, bread, soda, McDonald's (fries, bread), candy, cereal, etc. I also suspect that lower proportions of protein and nutrients play a role in carbs not being handled well by the body.
