I can EASILY eat a small amount of cold cereal - just don't like it very much. Haven't tried dog food yet ;-)

There is a very simple reason why people are overweight - for 99% of our history as a species, we had to WORK to get food (planting crops, chasing game) and it just didn't taste that great. Sugar and fat were rare. Our bodies are still at that stage, however now food is EASY to get (no physical work involved) and it tastes GREAT and is loaded with sugar and fat, things our bodies still crave from the time when they were scarce. Our diet has changed but our bodies haven't.
