If you add fat on top of sugar, absolutely. The sugar or carbs raises insulin so energy is directed towards storage (adipose tissue or fat) and the fat consumption gets carried along for the ride.

That is the problem with the typical McDonald's meal. It combines fat and carbohydrates together. Eat the meat only is entirely different than eating the meat with fries and bun. Meat only will raise insulin minimally. The bun and fries will raise it greatly. Add a sugary drink and over the top insulin secretion.

Calories matter but hormones that direct calories matter as much or more. Insulin tells the body what to do with the calories. Store or burn.
