Advertising like this don't help either

What? You guys don't have a fourth meal in your country? Don't you guys wake everyday at 3 AM to refill your stomach, like normal people? 

I personally think the four-meal system is perfect. I think that's because humans think in fours. It's the perfect plan though. Eat a meal every six hours. A nice, fixed, stable lifestyle. I sometimes have a few snacks in-between meals though, just in case my stomach isn't full.

6am is breakfast. 12 is lunch. 6 is dinner. And lets throw in a midnight snack.......all that energy that will be wasted and unused, going stright into your thighs and ass :P

That's the point!

If we didn't sleep there would be a point to it, but you don't need more than 3 main meals a day, unless you do a lot of activity (eg climbing moutains or marathons), which most people in the developed world are not likey to do ever anymore. Eating more than need, makes you fatter but fast food is worse as it doesn't really fill you up and is full of fat and calories, fast food makes you want more, as soon as you've finished, most of the time. But people can eat what they want, but they need to balance their diet properly, I think.
