We don't have self-control. Nobody cooks. And if they do it's microwaved or frozen garbage.

We eat out too much. To the point where we overpay to have shoddy delivery services bring us fast food.

The portions are too big. 1,500 calorie burgers, 2,000 calorie appetizers (the thing you eat before you eat your meal), 1,600 calorie 'salads'. Let's not forget the copious amounts of soda. When's the last time you at a single slice of pizza?

Plus ubiquitous snacks like chips or cookies that are precisely engineered to get to eat as many as you can.
