Same reason.
It doesn't take a "lot" of food to make someone fat; just bad food and not enough exercise. Forget expensive fast food; all processed foods are the same--they all contain fat, corn syrup solids, HFC or tons of salt (if not ALL of the above). It has very little ... if anything at all ... to do with the socioeconomic status.
Can you clarify what you mean by "poor" and "fat"? I'm guessing you're not talking extreme or abject poverty nor morbid obesity here.
