Very true. When people are well fed and comfortable, they don't care what happens outside. This also leads to the obessity cycle. When you're constantly fed, you tend to over eat and stretch your stomach. Then you are comfortably fed and if you miss that meal, you suddenly are starving, which causes you to over eat. This cycles over and over again. Constant eating is not healthy for you.
