Is it possible you would gain more or less fat eating a small meal high in fat vs. a huge meal high in fat?

Lets say both meals consist on 60g of fat. One was a slice of cake and a scoop of ice cream. The other is a giant chicken fried steak w/ gravy, buttered corn, and mashed potatoes with crumbled bacon on top.

Would one make you fatter than the other if they were both the same nutritional info, you just had to eat more of one vs the other?

Is this coincidence or am I on to something?

At a restaurant I frequent quite often for lunch (it’s like a mini-cafeteria), I notice all the very slim women don’t buy dessert. They may get “bad” stuff like fried chicken or chicken fried steak & potatoes piled with lots of gravy, but never EVER do they get dessert. Am I on to something? I’ve seen this at other restaurants, too. I always thought calories were calories, no matter if it’s fried foods or desserts.
