Not always. The fattest individual I know is nothing like that.

The technical term for that is 'pathetically inadequate sample'

OK so let all the skinny people fly. With the increase in drunk
pilots and workarounds to bypass FDA requirements, the idiots can all
die. That would leave a better world.

What do you say, fat people? Who the hell needs idiots anyway?

No it isn't. Some people like sugar but prefer to not exacerbate a
problem by adding high fat products. I eat wholegrain cereal with
full-fat milk and sugary cereal with low-fat milk. It makes the
calories the same for each meal and I can choose which taste I want.

Not quite - overloading the pancreas is not a judicious thing to do.
