I agree with you that portions have been out of fucking control for awhile but so are the "treats."   Long ago,  a couple would go once a month to get a burger and ice cream on a date and have a "treat to themselves" ya know? Nowadays these said things are explosively more potent than before and people are eating this shit a couple times a day. Fuck portion size when you're eating a greasy burger and fries and a milkshake at 1500+ calories for a relatively human or normal adult size. That's still 1500+ calories dude for one meal. These fatties are stopping at 7/11 in the morning for a sugar induced coffee with French vanilla cream, stopping at mcBeetus for a sausage, egg and cheese biscuit for breakfast and by lunch time they're eating "healthy" at Panera bread for a 800 calorie brocoli and cheese soup by noon. By the time this person is done commuting home with added snacks through the day they're already past the 3,000 calorie mark. You following so far? Then, by either hook or crook their significant other either made dinner from scratch or they're eating out yet AGAIN that same day. A bulking life for sure, too bad at $70k a year I can't even afford that shit. Yet this is seriously >75% of Americans shitty diet. Deny this shit, please?
