could just google it too

>We eat whatever tastes good to us and unhealthy food is tastier to most people

And why do you think it's tastier?

>I can eat a bag of baby carrots in a sitting

Oh boy, a whole bag. And yet 1 trip to McDonalds and you wolf down far more calories than there were in that entire bag.

>Even healthy food provides calories and if you don't use them guess what happens.

That's relevant, how?

>Don't tell me I need to learn what evolution is when you're just now deciding to change your wording.

I didn't change shit. In the comment you were replying to I was clearly talking about evolution and said the word "evolved" in the same fucking sentence.

>What the fuck do you mean "evolutionarily adapted"?

Our fucking instincts still act as if we're running around naked in the Savannah. Alright, I'll give you an example. Why does sex feel good? Why do we get horny and then get such a great feeling when we orgasm? Because it encourages us to reproduce. And yet, we orgasm and feel great even when using a condom. We consciously know that no reproduction is taking place, but your subconscious thinks you are and gives your dopamine receptors a little pat on the back.
