before everyone jumps on the "american's are fat bandwagon" (which is undeniably true) - its also fair to point out that the US is only SLIGHTLY leading the pack with many countries right behind. it has little to do with lazy or anything else other than a very swift and massive shift in diet. we ate healthy, whole, natural foods for millions of years and only in the last 100 years or so, we have started living almost entirely on sugar and fat.
the general rule according to UN studies is that it takes only about 10 years after a traditional diet being corrupted for diabetes and obesity rates to begin to explode.

The reason the other countries are only gaining on the US is because the US is bringing it's Mcshit food to the other countries. I live in Asia and it's amazing because the only time I really see fat people are when walking near the Mcdonald's or KFC or Pizza Huts. So we can all thank the US and McFarts for fattening and stinking up the rest of the world.
