People make themselves fat.
I agree some people do make themselves fat but this not always the case.
You got that right. And the story lost all claims to truthfulness when it got to the part about all the wonderful, clean, bright fast food joints in England in the 70s. I guess they mean the awful Little Chef roadside places and scummy Wimpy Bars.
I’m not fat, but I am going to have to stop having so many intimate dinners for two.... with just me showing up.
