It sure is a fantasy (albeit a negative one). Yes, many people are
eating with abandon. Are they popular? Well built? Maybe, maybe not. Who
cares?

Of all slim people I know, no one eats with abandon. The naturally
slim people who I know are not very interested in food. They eat when
hungry, not too much, and forget about eating until their next meal,
and eat whatever they want.

I wish that I was like them, but I am not.

I know a few skinny people who eat with abandon. Skinny and
slim aren't the same thing. Once I learn the skinny person's
medical history I shudder and become glad I do hold onto my
food.
