Ha! I came here to say the same thing. How the world has changed from 99% of our existence when humans were basically hungry all the time and calorie-density was an asset not a liability!
This is not really the case though. Humans in the past, even hunter-foragers (so therefore humans for most of human history) typically had an abundance of food and didn't have to work hard for it. We just destroyed all the food-rich ecosystems that used to sustain us before agriculture became widespread.
