I don't think access to raw calories is the problem here, given that we're talking about people being _overweight_. Broccoli provides considerably more satiety per calorie than Doritos, to say nothing of the difference in healthfulness.

You could raise the price of Doritos to be higher than broccoli and overweight people will still choose the Doritos.
