You are tying yourself in knots to pretend that that fat people are "hungry". Why bother? Why not just use appropriate language, instead of mangling English like this?

I do not deny that there is a problem. I just hate being manipulated with language. It is dishonest, disingenuous, insulting. Fat people are not going hungry. Find another word.

Routine addendum. Downvoting does not make you right. It just proves you to be intolerant of other people's opinions.
