One of her points that was correct is that it is not the meat that promotes obesity.
Obesity is promoted by overeating complex carbs and over-intake of sugar.
The Fast food burger/meat does not make you fat, the bread it is presented in makes you fat, along with the fries on the side. Those two pieces of bread, a side of fries and a sugared drink are the total carb intake a normal person should have for a week.
When you do that two or three times weekly the only possible outcome is adding weight.
We did not have an obesity crisis back when we used the "square meal" pattern of fruits, vegetables, meats and dairy. The obesity crisis occurred when the governments tried to remove meat as the staple of the diet and replace the old pattern with a "food pyramid" having a nutrition base that was totally carb supported.
