We are still No. 1!

In obesity rates in the Western world.

Does this really surprise anyone? The sheer oddity of television programming..."Man Vs. Food" and an entire network dedicated to rich foods are but two mainstream examples of the celebration of caloric excess.

one would think that the "heartland"(honestly, the pun was unintentional) would have lower rates of obesity due to the still ongoing meth epidemic. It would be funny if it was not true..that is another tragedy.

Kidding aside, I see no reason for the US to be the tubbiest country. The medical costs must be absolutely huge.

I have things to say about tobacco proucts, spirits, and the lack of universal motorcycle laws, but I really do not want to show my authoritarian side.

The US needs to lighten up..literally.
