So if your boys want to eat 10 pizzas each, you give it to them? Serving sizes getting out of control is likely one reason the country struggles with obesity. Granted, I'm not saying two 12" pizzas should feed all families of 4, but it should cover most. Each slice of pizza is what 250 calories?

OK, OP, you are really ridiculous. So your only options are 2 pizzas or 10 pizzas? You have lost any credibility a long time ago, and this just confirms that.
My boys were very active as teens (and still are as 20-somethings). In high school, they ran cross country, ran track, were active in theater, and in many clubs. They were go - go - go all. the. time. Plus, they studied hard and maintained excellent grades in a college prep high school. None of them ever were and are not now even close to overweight. In fact, my youngest at age 20 has been told repeatedly that he should really gain some weight. He's almost 6 feet tall and only weighs about 130 pounds. He eats constantly! He is ALWAYS on the go.
I don't know about YOU, but I taught my boys to eat when they were hungry and stop when they were full. I didn't provide junk. They had GOOD, QUALITY meals, home made IN THE OVEN almost every night. See, when you don't go out to eat a lot, you can provide HEALTHY food, not junk filled with empty carbs, salt, and fat.....
I don't really like to cook for just me, but I did it all the time when my kids lived at home.
i never said it was proof - but there's evidence that American's are cooking MUCH less.
This thread would have been much more honest if it was posed thusly: with Americans spending less time in the kitchen, what should tomorrow's kitchens look like as far as appliances?
As it is, it drifted completely from your initial launching point (congratulations) of the desirability of a remodel of a kitchen with a full complement of traditional appliances into one with a full complement of traditional appliances EXCEPT the oven is replaced by a stand-alone, but large, toaster oven.

And then, as an example of said stand-alone, but large, toaster oven, he links to convection ovens.

So? Americans are cooking less, therefore we should stop putting ovens in kitchens? There is a very weak, if any connection of these 2 thoughts. Maybe they can go without a food processor or a blender or a hand mixer or a full set of pots and pans, but an oven? No.
