I don't own a car and usually walk or cycle everywhere I need to go. This has been my lifestyle for practically all of my life. And none of what you say rings true to me. It's very easy to me to carry to go to the supermarket and walk out carrying an absurd amount of calories.

I actually eat worse when I go out walking, because I am more likely to stop at dairies (convenience stores). In a car I am I tend to go out of my way slightly to get some better food.

Well, I will grant there are exceptions to my expectation, and it might just be my own bias coloring it; I tend to avoid "bad" foods pretty regularly, cook my own meals, and I am not very tempted by convenience stores at all.

I would easily accept that it's still subject to personal bias more strongly.
