I never feel full after eating them
I guess we’ll have to differ on that one then. I would put them as fairly filling food.
Maybe we’re talking about different types of tacos?
Giggity giggity!
My mom isn’t nearly as wealthy as Oprah but she certainly can afford a personal trainer and a chef and so forth and she’s had the latter for most of her adult life. But neither of those can physically remove the steak or pie from her craw. Exacerbating it is the food options she’s presented with. Once she was at a dinner with a ten foot table of iced jumbo peeled shrimp cocktail.
She ate so much that she had a histamine reaction and barfed it all up.
I’m certainly not making excuses for her; lord knows I’ve tried to help her and encouraged her to exert some self control. But if you don’t have to worry about affording food, say, lower-middle class and all the way up, it all boils down to self control (ETA: better word than self control would be “calories in, calories out”)
Twenty tacos?! Goddamn, who can eat twenty tacos? I think my upper limit would be, like, three tacos. Bleh.
Someone who thinks (or says) they eat 20 tacos but really eats like 6 or 7. That’s who.
And how the hell do you know whether a person you’re looking at or talking to is an exception or the rule? Unless you spend a month watching them eat every single meal, there’s no way to know, but more importantly, no reason to CARE whether someone is an exception or not.
You sound like you’re inventing excuses to judge someone as a lazy slob or anorexic on first sight.
So, really, we don’t need studies or anything science-y, right… we can just take your word for it?
