Nope, it's cultural. If you look at cultures outside of your narrow window (in both time and space), you'll find that the perception of fatness has varied wildly over the millenia.
Over history being fat wasn’t an impulse control issue. It is now.
If we are wired to detect something doesn’t mean it has to be a first order attribute. Isn’t fat now versus fat then.
Gambling, addiction, setting fires, fighting, chronic lying, etc… some of those are first ordered detectable and some maybe aren’t.
