Most recipes like that are from a time when farmers worked the land and
factory workers put in 12 hour days and burned 12,000+ calories.

That's true. My grandfather and his sons walked behind a plow for
years and all were slim. That is until the boys decided looking
at a mule's butt for 10-12 hours a day for 6 days a week wasn't for

weight.
