<p>Sure, if you stuff enough cold, hard cash down your gullet, your  belly will probably stick out like an overfed oil exec. Same with fat.  Fat keeps us full, and healthy fats like those found in seafood and many  plants help protect against heart disease. But most of us are eating  way, way too much of the wrong kinds—and getting fatter in return.</p>
