jettee: I'm going buy SHOPPING and BUYING habits of people in grocery stores and food markets. The idea of feeling full as Jetee is postulating has nothing to do with poor people since they don't know or can't tell the difference. This isn't endemic to US, it's the same in any country. People fish, instead of consuming the fish, they sell it and buy rice which fills up their belly more than they fish. This isn't a FEELING this is about seeing MORE mass and volume which equates psychologicially to a fuller belly.
you've demonstrated it's possible, I don't and can't refute that. But what I have been and still am talking about is that studies show that poor people are not good at making healthy and nutrional choices. What can I get and not prepare and eat since I'm in a hurry? a $1.00 double cheese burger or $1 oatmeal? There is plenty of articles and evidence the people are poor choosers in getting nutritional meal and foodstuffs. If it were why would the processed food groups start with a Healthy food program? Because they know that a little education can hurt their overall sales.
