54. Obesity among the very poor is not due to an abundance of food

it is due to the lack of nutrition in the foods that they can afford, and ignorance. These sisters and brothers live on cheap fast food which fills their belly but doesn't provide any sustenance, therefore they crave more food.

Corporate food has created a unique problem, obesity combined with malnutrition.
