Yeah, I felt the author came off as more of an asshole than the other person.

Look up Angler fish if you really want a weird reproductive story.

Your examples don't even anecdotally disagree with calories in-calories out though. The soda example is lowering calories in. The second example is raising calories out. The point of calories in-calories out is that you can change either side of the equation to effect change.
