There is by no means a legit cop-out for America getting fat other than it has become our culture. Big biz is partly to blame but so are our personal choices at large (pun intended).
It's high time we get our shit in order on sooooooooooooo many levels or we'll look to an even MORE unhealthy future....on soooooooooo many levels :/

That's right TheJimmy.
Problem in the U.S. is same worldwide though: TASTE BUDS!
Our tastebuds rule our lives. Plain and simple. Taste/smell is the mind contolling mechanism that shifts humanity.
The money maker makes foods and treats that appeal to the taste. He who skillz da' buds rules da' world!
On the east coast there's a snack called 'Funny Bones'. When they first came out you almost had to shoot people in the streets. They were so delicious. I'll never forget. Girls would chase you down the street if you had 'Funny Bones'. Most west coast kids never had em' so when you dish them out they either fall over in a coma or they want to follow you home. In the old days they were awesome, nowadays they're like made from some artificial alien goo.
There's a company on the east coast called Freihoffers. They make cakes and stuff. If you unleashed Freihoffers' chocolate chip cookies and chocolate icing cupcakes on the west coast you would have to call in the national guard.
How nutritious are they?
See what I mean? It's tough. A real battle to change your dieting lifestyle when entire corporate mega-companies are working around the clock to come up with a new taste or double triple burger bacon combo thingie.
We Americans are fat because we can't 'not' see food 24/7
