Sadly, this is the trend, passing the blame onto others and making money off of it.

same here. I have to make the conscious decisons of what I'm going to eat. I've been told by the dietician that I have 40grams of fat to play with a day. That's it. For those of you that don't know, a SMALL bag of potato chips has 13-15g of fat.
Just a Quater Pounder with cheese has 46g, add a supersize fries to that and you add another 29g of fat.
And just because something doesn't have fat in it doesn't mean that it's low in calories either. Being on a 2000 calorie a day diet, also doesn't allow for eating at McD's at all since a value meal (fat notwithstanding) will easily take up more than 1/2 of that 2000 calories.
