Re: Taco Bell

Isn't this the reason why the poor people in the US are in general fatter and less healthy than the rich?

For some, indirectly.
ONE of the reasons for someone to be poor is that they are lazy. There are a multiude of other reasons which are valid and free of fault.
For that lazy demographic, it's going to be much more appealing to spend $5 on a meal at Taco Bell than it is to buy $4 worth of food at a grocery store with which to make meals. Believe me, you can get vegetables, meat, and bread for $20 that will last you for quite a few sandwiches.
Those people also wouldn't ever exercise, always take the elevator, etc. Therefore, they are fat.
Please don't go off on a flame-trail here with my insinuation about the poor. You know I'm talking about one small subset... but for that subset, I think laziness is more the issue than cheap food at TB.
